Product Details

By C.E. Spaulding, DVM and Jackie Clay. 432 pages, 5-1/2" x 8-1/2". Softcover.

Revised and updated, this easy-to-use manual has withstood 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 that animal. The introductory chapter includes solid advice on choosing the right veterinarian and the importance of preventive medicine, while the final chapter – Some Basics for the Layperson – covers tips and techniques that apply to more than one animal, such as administering medications, taking temperatures, handling shock, and dealing with bee stings. From housing and feeding to first aid and breeding, this book provides a wealth of practical, no-nonsense information no animal owner should be without. Copyright 2001.
