Abstract
Clinical nutrition is an often neglected but crucial part of patient management. Proper nutrition has a vital role in preventative medicine, and many commercial diets have been developed to decrease the risk of certain disorders. This chapter examines Nutritional requirements in illness after surgery; Selecting diets for sick animals; Enteral nutrition; Parenteral nutrition; and Nutrition in specific diseases.

A typical PPN solution formulated for humans but which can be used in dogs. The white emulsion is lipid; the middle section contains an amino acid solution; and the right hand portion contains dextrose. The fluids have a long shelf life while separated like this. When they are administered, the internal seals between the bags are broken and the solutions mixed. © 2010 British Small Animal Veterinary Association

Note the marked reduction in the bone density of the skull in the mandible particularly, which gives the appearance of the teeth ‘floating’ in very little bone.
