A rural veterinarian’s honest and insightful memoir of caring for thousands of pets, horses, farm and zoo animals. These heartfelt, and often funny, recollections and insights will interest all animal lovers, and anyone wanting to know the reality and the joy of veterinary medicine.
Written in an easy and memorable way and enhanced with 45 full-color photographs. This is a positive and refreshing look at what it means to be a veterinarian. Dr. Reid’s natural curiosity, empathy and enthusiasm for the profession shines through.
Canadian Dr. Reid shares his career in a broad rural-based practice in southwestern Ontario and Niagara. Here he learns to be humble and diplomatic as a young veterinarian, rescues cattle in a barn fire, experiences the stress of emergency equine care, and works with police to safety recapture zoo animals, including Stanley the tapir, from the Niagara River.
Dr. Reid relays interesting pet care experiences with a dangerous bull camel, a fish named Fred needing surgery, and boxer Layla’s newborn pups needing all hands-on-deck support. You can feel his appreciation for dedicated zookeepers and the welfare of zoo animals, including Noah the giraffe, and the monkeys and the tigers that came in for health checkups.
Dr Reid also details many who have helped him along the way: his partners and mentors, veterinary staff, his students, friends and many clients. You understand his gratefulness for the kindness of farmers, whether he’s performing ultrasound checks on valuable cattle or out for an emergency surgery in a blizzard. Many talented registered veterinary technicians and administrative staff have been key to his successful animal care, day-to-day and especially during the challenging curbside veterinary clinical care during the pandemic.
Dr. Reid has trained and mentored hundreds of veterinary students and graduates. All profits from the sale of his book will go to help support veterinary students in need with their educational expenses.
