The best perfonners are subsequently auctioned at public sales. To date, at least 10 Merino veld ram clubs have been established in various centres in South Africa. A strain of Haemonchus contortus, which was isolated from the pastures of one of these performance testing units, was found to be resistant to ivermectin, oxfendazo1e and rafoxanide. Closantel, levamisole and disophenol were more than 99% effective. The wide dispersal of the rams after testing, constitutes a potential danger for dissemination of helminths with resistant genes. Precautionary methods should include careful routine monitoring of drug susceptibility on the communal pastures, on the farms of individual members and thorough deworming of rams before they leave the testing unit. The prevention and control of resistance in such testing units are discussed, but it is emphasised that this is difficult, particularly if the worm strains on the communal grazing have become resistant to some of the anthelmintic groups.","PeriodicalId":17573,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The South African Veterinary Association-tydskrif Van Die Suid-afrikaanse Veterinere Vereniging","volume":"11 1","pages":"171-175"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86943220","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The animal-owner profile, the identification of animals involved and the need which motivated owners to seek such consultations were investigated. The results indicated that the most typical animal owner to participate in programmes of this nature was an adult woman living in the country and the most common animal involved was an intact male dog. The most common area of concern was ethological of nature. Behavioural problems were the most common ethological problem, followed by management and care. The significance of this study for the veterinarian is probably that it recognises the role and importance of informal consultations, that deficiencies in formal consultations are indicated and that it emphasises the need of readily available knowledge of ethology, that informal consulta tions are unsuitable for serious cases, and that informal consultations give further insight into human-animal interaction from a veterinary perspective.","PeriodicalId":17573,"journal":{"name":"Journal of The South African Veterinary Association-tydskrif Van Die Suid-afrikaanse Veterinere Vereniging","volume":"12 1","pages":"167-170"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1991-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81620133","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
