It is ICAR accredited and ISO 9001:2015 certified institution. The Indian Council of Agricultural Research has ranked this University at eleventh place among all farm universities of the country. The University has been given the mandate for making provision for imparting education in agriculture and other allied branches of learning, furthering the advancement of learning and prosecution of research and undertaking extension of such sciences, especially to the rural people of Himachal Pradesh. Over the years, this University has contributed significantly in transforming the farm scenario of Himachal Pradesh. It has developed human resources, varieties and technologies and transferred these to farming community enabling the State to receive the “Krishikarman award” of Govt. of India four times in row for food grain production among small states of the country. Today, the State has earned its name for hill agricultural diversification and the farming community has imposed its faith in the University.

    The purpose of this study was to clinically evaluate ketamine, propofol or ketaminepropofol for induction of anaesthesia in diazepam-butorphanol premedicated and maintained dogs. Thirty clients owned dogs of either sex were randomly divided into three groups BDP (Butorphanol-Diazepam-Propofol), BDK (Butorphanol-Diazepam-Ketamine) and BDKP (Butorphanol-Diazepam-Ketofol). All dogs were premedicated with atropine sulphate @ 0.04 mg/kg b. wt subcutaneously followed fifteen minutes later with Butorphanol tartarate @ 0.2 mg/kg b. wt IV. 5 minutes later Diazepam @ 0.5 mg/kg b. wt IV was administered followed by Propofol, Ketamine or Ketofol “till effect” IV for induction of surgical anaesthesia as per group. After induction, the animals were immediately transferred to isoflurane in oxygen. Observations recorded in dogs included analgo-clinical observations, cardiovascular observations, haemodynamic observations, anaesthetic response and dose, pulmonary responses and haemato-biochemical observations at various time intervals. The induction dose of propofol, ketamine or ketofol in BDP, BDK and BDKP group was 4.5±0.07 mg/kg, 5.0±0.23 mg/kg and 3.0±0.00 mg/kg respectively. Hypothermia was observed in BDP and BDKP group. Increased heart rate and fall in diastolic arterial pressure and increase in mean arterial pressure were observed in BDKP and BDK groups respectively after induction of anaesthesia with no rhythmic disturbance. The CVP remained below normal range in BDK group. SPO2 and ETCO2 remained in physiological limits in all the anaesthetic combinations. Significant respiratory depression occurred in BDKP group after induction. Transient apnea was observed in three animals in BDP group which was resolved after shifting of animal to 100% oxygen. Smoother induction and transfer were achieved by all the combinations. Recoveries were smoother, and excitement free in BDP group. Significant fall in Hb, PCV and TEC occurred in all the groups in early phase. Biochemical parameters remained within normal limits in all the groups. All the combinations used in present study and recommended for different types of surgeries in dogs.
