Abstract
The purpose of the study is to present techniques used by members of the Dominican Order to solve the veterinary problems of the animals that belonged to the brothers and that which were kept in the manors such as: horses, cows, pigs, sheep and dogs. On the basis of the accounts written in XVII, XVIII and XIX century those practices were shown. There were usually two models of behavior in the attempts at medical treatment in early modern period. One of those was bleeding which was quite frequently used in that period of time. Phlebotomy was extremely popular, and used in various cases even to solve problems with sight or when horses were too exhausted to work. Next attention has been given particularly to special diet and drugs which were produced by the veterinarians. Some of the drugs produced in that period based on alcohol especially on vodka.
