Customer Reviews

Dr. Nick Trout works as a veterinary surgeon in a state-of-the-art
veterinary hospital. If there are miracles in veterinary medicine--and sometimes
there are!--he occasionally gets to see them. But he is not the least bit
arrogant about that. He soul-searches diligently to try to determine if he is
doing the right things.
He also appreciates the qualities of dog and cat owners and what their
relationships with their animals mean. He expresses what we know about those
relationships, and clearly sees that there is much more to the relationships
than we can truly understand. He has great respect for the animals and the
people.
There are tears in the book, but not unduly. There is joy in the book. And
what he says about chocolate Labradors is very funny!
I'm so glad I got this chance to read this book. I'm sure you will be, too!

The title says it all! Like everyone who bought this book I love animals and was looking forward to a good read. The book has us at "hello" but soon after the hello I was formulating my excuse to make an exit. Really hate to say this but once I put the book down around the fourth chapter or so I never felt compelled to pick it up again. One main reason is the organization of the story line. We are introduced to a pet and it's owner in one chapter and next chapter is another owner and then next chapter reappears the previous pet and owner. I will admit to being somewhat attention deficit but I could not follow who was who and what was happening with them after awhile. If you love animal stories here are some alternate recommendations: pick up the All Creatures Great And Small series and My Dog Tulip.
