This work is written for novice horse breeders, but assumes that the reader will be fairly experienced with horses in general. It gives advice on breeding for horse owners, and also gives a detailed run-down of the foaling process, starting a month beforehand.

Part 1 Veterinary considerations: Why do you need a vet?; reproductive function in the mare; reproductive function in the stallion; genetics and heredity; pregnancy; before, during and after foaling; veterinary care and management of mare, foal and young stock; nutritional requirements of mares, foals and young stock; diseases and abnormalities; artificial insemination and embryo transfer. Part 2 Practical aspects: Decision time; money and things; your foundation stock; nature versus man; sending the mare to stud; care of the pregnant mare; foaling; as time goes on.
