Book Description
This innovative resource provides
both step-by-step instructions and vivid, full-color photographs that explain and illustrate proper animal restraint techniques. Each
procedure features between two and eight photos that clearly show the exact steps necessary to achieve safe and effective restraint.
It covers handling and restraint for all domestic species: cats, dogs, horses, cattle, pigs, sheep goats, lab animals, rabbits, ferrets,
and birds. The book also includes normal and abnormal behavior characteristics, precautions, special handling, restraint devices, and
descriptions of medical procedures, such as venipuncture, for which special restraint procedures are necessary.
