Horse owners constantly need to update their understanding of their horse's health and to understand the actions of their vet in order to make informed decisions and to protect the health of their animal. With this helpful guide, readers will find information on the ten most common syndromes a busy equine vet is faced with--from colic and lameness, to skin disease and heart disease--along with thorough advice on dealing with them successfully. Owners will find the sections, lists, and tables in this guide both easily readable and infinitely helpful.
