Abstract:
Despite the increasing interest for canine neonatology many aspects of canine neonatology are
still not completely studied and perinatal mortality rates are high.
The identification of newborn puppies at high risk at birth/hospitalization is the main goal in
advancing veterinary neonatology, as well as the improvement of newborn assessment protocols. The
identification of at risk puppies should rely on objective indicators of severity, allowing a differentiated
clinical assistance according to neonatal conditions and allowing canine perinatal mortality reduce.
This paper presents and discuss the neonatal severity indicators presently useful in the dog, as
demonstrated by the specific scientific literature. Among them, some can be used only at birth, others
only during the subsequent neonatal period and some useful at both times. Despite the availability of
some useful severity indicators, the development of severity score systems are considered necessary also
in dogs as in humans.
