Summary: Next Best Thing to a Vet in Person--All purpose guide
Comment: This book has been a mainstay on my bookshelf since it was published (actually it rarely is on my bookshelf). I bought it then because I had pygmy goats--but this book is the first I grab with questions for any breed. One of the most helpful part is the vaccination schedule and standard dosing of medications for goats. I now have 4 breeds of dairy goats and it is still my first pick. If I can't have a vet in person this is the handiest back-up. I would appreciate a bit more clinical information on treatment but very helpful on diagnosis. Packed full of useful information for the beginner and the well experienced. There are days I wish I had two copies--one by the phone in the house and one in the barn. You won't regret this purchase.

Summary: Very Good Book
Comment: This is a very helpful and and informative for most any breed of goat. Our copy has also been well used in just the few months that we have had it. My only disappointments were #1) that there is no instuctions on emergency first aid, #2) It was difficult to find a cause and treatment for a sudden illness that took one of our younger goats in the middle of the night, and #3) I do not feel that it was adequate with instructions on the care of newborn kids. I think this is a very good book to start off with, but I am planning on purchasing another book on the care of goats that may tell me the little bit that this book is lacking. And, of course, no animal care book can ever replace a Veternary Doctor's advice.

Summary: Excellent book! Information is well presented.
Comment: Being an owner of Pygmy goats I have found information as well as veteranarians well-versed in pygmy goat health to be very limited. This book has been a life saver to me on more then one occasion. My dog-earred copy is in my barn, and I refer to it often. I encourage anyone and everyone who owns exotic pygmy goats to purchase a copy of this book. It will pay for itself many times over!
