Using case examples and video, I discuss the management of renal failure stressing closed collection catheterization, monitoring and fluid planning. I use an example of ethylene glycol poisoning to introduce peritoneal dialysis. I also discuss managing urinary tract obstructions in dogs and cats, pyometra, prostatic abscess, and dystocia.
