In a survey covering 145 puppies in 60 litters diseases after parturition and within the first week of life are discussed. Problems in the diagnosis and therapy are correlated with further investigations, i.e. bacteriology, sensitivity tests and in some cases necropsy. Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome and bacterial infections have been found to be the most common diseases in the first days of life in puppies.
