Aneasthetic

Hello,

I have the same experience as Margo, Czechoslovakian wolfdogs commonly need more anasthetics and recover more quickly than other breeds. The same is experienced with wolves. There are a lot of modern anasthetics that can be used without any problems even with very old and ill dogs like propofol or isoflurane. Laughing gas is only used for the first minutes of inhalation anasthesia and isn´t the best thing to use for all patients because of some of it´s side effects.
For short time anasthesia the most common thing ist diazepam in combination with propofol if you don´t need a strong analgetic effect.

Regards Ina
