Anyone who owns or works with horses must deal with a sick or injured horse at one time or another. Some problems are obvious -- a horse thrashing in pain or bleeding profusely. Other problems are more subtle, such as the onset of a mild case of colic.

In First Aid for Horses, two top veterinarians will tell you what's normal in your horse and what is cause for concern.

You will learn:

  • How to take your horse's vital signs
  • What first aid supplies should be kept on hand
  • When you can help your horse
  • When you should call your vet

    They discuss:
  • Eye and head injuries
  • Colic
  • Heat stress
  • Shock
  • Lameness
  • And many other conditions…


    • Graphics help emphasize each section.
