First published in 1976, then revised and updated in 1998, this easy-to-use manual has stood the test of time. Arranged by animal – cattle, horses, pigs, sheep, poultry, rabbits, dogs, and cats – each chapter thoroughly discusses general care and management, plus diseases and other problems associated with each animal. The introductory chapter includes solid advice in choosing the right veterinarian and the importance of preventive medicine, while the chapter cover tips and techniques that apply to more than one animal, such as administering medications, taking a temperature, handling shock, and dealing with bee stings. From housing and feeding to first aid and breeding, an absolute must-have resource for any animal owner. Copyright 2001.
