OBJECTIVES
To describe the health disorders seen in captivity in 206 pet prairie dogs.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Review of medical records of pet prairie dogs that were presented to a veterinary clinic in the period January 2002 to December 2011.
RESULTS
The most frequent diseases were respiratory (28.2%), dental (25.2%), integumentary (22.3%) and digestive (19.4%). The most common clinical disorders were rhinitis, elodontoma, hypothermia, gastrointestinal stasis, diarrhoea, obesity and gastrointestinal tympany.
CLINICAL SIGNIFICANCE
This listing of clinical diseases will help clinicians focus their disease investigation and increase clinical awareness of prairie dog diseases. There was a high rate of poor or unsuitable husbandry and this was often associated with clinical disease. Of the diseases seen commonly in this study, only elodontoma has been previously reported as being common.
目的
描述206只圈养宠物土拨鼠所患的健康疾病。
材料与方法
回顾2002年1月至2011年12月期间送至一家兽医诊所的宠物土拨鼠的病历。
结果
最常见的疾病为呼吸道疾病（28.2%）、牙科疾病（25.2%）、皮肤疾病（22.3%）和消化系统疾病（19.4%）。最常见的临床病症为鼻炎、牙瘤、体温过低、胃肠淤滞、腹泻、肥胖和胃肠鼓胀。
临床意义
这份临床疾病清单将有助于临床医生集中进行疾病调查，并提高对土拨鼠疾病的临床认识。饲养管理不善或不合适的比例很高，这往往与临床疾病有关。在本研究中常见的疾病中，只有牙瘤此前曾被报道为常见疾病。
