Description: This book offers a practical guide to caring for domesticated animals, particularly for those who lack access to professional veterinary advice. It delves into the causes, symptoms, and treatment of various ailments affecting livestock, horses, cattle, sheep, swine, dogs, and poultry. The author emphasizes the importance of preventative care and stresses that many diseases are avoidable with basic knowledge and careful management. The book reflects a time when veterinary science was still developing, and it draws upon a range of sources, including the works of renowned figures like Youatt and Gamgee. Readers will find a comprehensive understanding of diseases common to the era, such as "glanders" and "strangles," and practical advice for their treatment. While the author acknowledges the need for professional expertise, the book empowers readers to take ownership of their animals' health by providing valuable information and techniques. The text emphasizes the crucial role of diligent observation, hygiene, and basic care in maintaining the well-being of domesticated animals, highlighting the importance of a proactive approach to their health.
