Anatomy of spinal CSF loss in the American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis)

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 575-584, April 2025.
India ink introduced into the cranial cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) compartment of Alligator diffuses along the spinal cord and exits the spinal compartment using perineural flow, resulting in a prominent “ink cuff” forming at the base of the spinal nerve. In Alligator, the region of the ink cuff is drained by a small lymphatic vessel.

When – and whether – should we spay/neuter companion dogs

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
The recent publication of guidelines for the control of reproduction in dogs and cats shows that a variety of non‐neoplastic and neoplastic conditions occur more commonly in spayed/neutered than entire dogs, and for several of such conditions the earlier the age at surgery – the higher the risk. In addition, unwanted behavioural changes may occur after

Diagnosis of degenerative myelopathy in a Boston terrier–French bulldog mixed breed

open access: yesJournal of Small Animal Practice, EarlyView.
Canine degenerative myelopathy (DM) has been associated with mutations in the superoxide dismutase 1 gene (SOD1). Although the SOD1:c.118G>A mutation has been identified in Boston terriers and French bulldogs, no histological‐confirmed degenerative myelopathy has been reported in either breed.
