Injury. Booklice feed on molds and will overrun cereals and similar materials that support mold growth. Their presence, therefore, is a nuisance and can render some foods unfit. The starchy paste of wallpaper and books also can support mold growth or may be attacked directly by booklice.
Special Notes. In young dogs, hip dysplasia usually is caused by conformational abnormalities that cause a âpoor fitâ between the head of the femur and the pelvic acetabulum, which in turn causes laxity of the hip joint.
Canine Hip Dysplasia (CHD) is a condition that begins in dogs as they grow and results in instability or a loose fit (laxity) of the hip joint (Figure 1). The hip joint laxity is responsible for potential clinical signs (symptoms) of hip pain and limb dysfunction and progressive joint changes.
