It is superfluous to define what a wart is. Warts are frequently found in the dog in different situations.

1. On the eyelids. When attached to the edge of the lid they keep up great irritation of the conjunctiva, that may end in troublesome inflammation. A wart so small as to remain unobserved, except after special examination, may do much mischief in the part.

2. On the mucous membrane of the prepuce, or of the vagina.

3. On the lips and mouth, causing the dog much discomfort, and preventing him from taking his food.

Treatment

Excision, ligature, and Tkuya. The last remedy may be applied full strength to the wart, night and morning; and at the same time from two to four drops of the first dilution may be given every night. For single warts, removal is, of course, the best remedy; but when a considerable part of the skin or mucous membrane is the seat of warty growths, and when the reproduction takes place after excision, Thuya will be found efficacious.

Calcarea carbonica, a dose night and morning, is an excellent remedy for warty growths.
