Abstract
The useful and comfortable breeding life of most disabled and aging stallions can be extended with well-planned and coordinated management and veterinary care aimed at maintaining libido and adequate copulatory ability. This paper outlines various aspects that can be addressed in a coordinated plan, including pain management, fitness and weight management, optimum breeding management and handling, and alternate methods of semen collection, including ground semen collection, manual stimulation, and pharmacologically induced ejaculation.
