On the basis of literature data and experience of authors about of housing conditions, health and welfare of dairy cows it could be concluded that: there is worldwide increasing scientific research, consumer activity, and political response towards housing conditions, animal health and welfare issues; all buildings and housing systems should be designed, constructed , maintained and managed to assist in the achievement of the Five Freedoms: freedom from hunger and thirst, freedom from discomfort, feedom from pain, injury and disease, freedom to express normal behaviour and freedom from fear and distress; nowadays is well known that absence of disease does not necessarily suggest optimal animal welfare; however, the presence of disease usually indicates possible poor welfare issues; as well as its ethical importance, good welfare has been repeatedly demonstrated to have a beneficial effect on different aspects of dairy cattle production.
