Description

Colic is a serious gastro-intestinal condition in horses and is one of the main reasons for calling out the vet. It is a disease that must not be taken lightly, as it often proves fatal. The condition has various causes, some quite complex. This book explains the causes of colic, the symptoms of the various colic types - of which there are many - and particularly how to prevent colic. The information set out in this book is something every horse owner should know, because most colics can be prevented.
