Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Pets are more and more considered as family members and it is not unusual to listen to people speak about puppies as “babies”. A simple reality is hidden behind this curious statement: people expect the same high-quality medical assistance for their pets as they expect for themselves. Considering specifically veterinary pediatrics, a lot of therapeutic protocols and information are anecdotical and derived from human medicine. Twenty years after its first edition, “Veterinary pediatrics: dogs and cats from birth to six months” by J.D. Hoskins still represents the sole milestone not only for clinicians but also for pharmacologists and toxicologists. According to these concepts, it seems clear that it is necessary to improve the knowledge about pharmacology and toxicology in veterinary pediatrics. Veterinary Sciences has organized a Special Issue related to these topics, in which I hope that clinicians and researchers will collaborate and share their knowledge providing reviews, original papers, and short communications contributing to setting a new milestone for veterinary pediatrics.
