This course will discuss the clinical approach to and the management of a variety of common conditions resulting in fever in small animal practice. The aim of the individual webinars will be to review the physiology of fever and the differential diagnoses for the presenting signs in that particular body system.

The aim is to highlight themes in the diagnostic approach to inspire delegates to become more confident in how to approach similar case in their practice, especially when referral is not an option.
