This second volume of a two-volume work focuses on clinical medical topics such as cardiology, anesthesia, pharmacology, etc. in donkeys, mules and hinnies and provides readers with an overview of diagnostics, treatment, and surgery. The complete two-volume textbook is an indispensable A to Z guide aimed at veterinarians, students, and donkey owners alike, providing a richly illustrated in-depth practical approach to understanding the anatomy, physiology, diseases, and treatment of the various equine species.
This volume serves as authoritative guide to clinical medicine and reproduction topics of donkeys, mules, and hinnies, highlighting their specifics in a broad range of medical disciplines, while also shedding light on the genomic and functional mechanisms of immunity in these unique equines. The book explores a clinical approach to diagnosing and managing skin, hepatic, and respiratory diseases, as well as neurologic and ophthalmologic conditions. Pharmacological and therapeutic strategies, anesthesia, and pain management are discussed, offering tailored procedures to ensure comprehensive coverage of veterinary care for donkeys, mules, and hinnies. Moreover, readers get a detailed insight into equine reproductive health, including latest updates on embryo technologies and in vitro breeding advancements.
Written in an easy-to-understand style, this textbook is the first of its kind to provide detailed medical information on donkeys, mules, and hinnies.

The European Commission provides a platform for online dispute resolution (ODR), which can be found here: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr/. Consumers have the possibility to use this platform for the settlement of their disputes.
To settle disputes arising from a contractual relationship with a consumer or whether such a contractual relationship exists at all, we are obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board. The responsible body is the Universalschlichtungsstelle des Bundes am Zentrum für Schlichtung e.V., Straßburger Straße 8, 77694 Kehl am Rhein, www.verbraucher-schlichter.de. We will participate in a dispute resolution procedure before this body.
11. protection of minors
If your order includes goods whose sale is subject to age restrictions, we ensure that the customer has reached the required minimum age by using a reliable procedure involving a personal identity and age check. The delivery person will hand over the goods only after the age check has been carried out and only to the customer in person.
Delivery to packing stations is not possible in this case.
Right of withdrawal

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to medimops, Leipzig, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
