Small animal veterinarians are increasingly taking on caseloads that include farm animals, with cases being presented by local hobby farmers, smallholders, and "novelty pet" owners. With the increase in veterinary telemedicine, they now also receive requests for advice electronically from owners further afield. Recognizing this trend, Farm Animal Medicine and Surgery for Small Animal Veterinarians provides a quick reference for small-animal orientated veterinarians in the basics of surgery and treatment of farm animals. Popular animals such as cattle, sheep, goats, pigs, camelids and backyard poultry are covered, and basic techniques such as anaesthesia, clinical examination techniques, breeding, surgery and euthanasia are discussed. 258 p.
