Abstract

An experimental study was conducted to evaluate the effects of ketamine alone and with xylazine combination on anesthetic parameters; on physiological and hematological parameters so as to choose a suitable general anesthetic combination for use in surgical procedures in local breed of dogs in Mekelle, Ethiopia. The experimental study was carried out on ten local breed of dogs and were randomly divided in to two groups with five dogs in each group. Data was collected for analyzing physiological effects of anesthetic combinations; anesthetic effects and hematological effects using physical recording and laboratory analysis. The results of this study showed duration of general anesthesia was (91±6.28min) and animal recovered (101.2±6.5min) and was longer in xylazine-ketamine combination, whereas duration of general anesthesia was (30±1.05min) was shorter in ketamine alone.
