Miniature Horses - A Veterinary Guide for Owners and Breeders

• An essential manual for owners, breeders, and veterinarians of Miniature horses

• Through years of selective breeding, Miniature horses have developed into true scaled-down versions of full-sized horses. However, despite the similarity in appearance to their larger relatives, with respect to veterinary care, Miniature horses cannot be viewed simply as smaller patients. The rate of occurrence, diagnosis, and treatment of many diseases is affected by their size and unique physiological and metabolic demands.

• This book provides all the information needed to safely and appropriately treat Miniatures. All the systems of the horse are covered with special attention given to Miniature specific problems and concerns including hoof diseases, abnormalities of growth, liver dysfunction, dental irregularities, dwarfism, reproduction, nutrition

• The manual is made complete with appendices offering normal physical parameters, clinical signs of disease, and resources for Miniature horse owners. It is illustrated throughout with 50 color photos and diagrams
