ABSTRACT

Recent developments in equine reproduction have meant that extra information needs to be assimilated by practising and student veterinarians and breeders. Whilst there are many excellent texts that provide detailed information on the subject, the aim of this project was to provide a series of case scenarios any of which could face us in our daily work: the mare that will not become pregnant, the foal that is sick or the stallion whose semen needs to be evaluated. The information given in the answer is sufficient that the book should not only be helpful to practitioners, but also to veterinary students preparing to graduate. These detailed answers should hopefully ensure that the book can be returned to on several occasions and additional information retained each time.
