Abstract

 

Labrador Retriever Puppies aged between 3 months to 5 months with parvoviral enteritis were selected and their Arterial Blood Gas (ABG) profile was analyzed. It revealed decreased pO2 and elevated anion gap affected puppies. There was significant reduction in the mean concentrations for plasma total CO2 (TCO2), partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) and HCO3 values.
