Breakfast Chat 7: "Your Dog Ate What? Again?" (Weird Veterinary Stories #2)
This is a weird one. Not at all what you'd be expecting. The names of locations, individuals, and 4-legged lifeforms have been changed to protect the innocent.
If you enjoy funny vet stories, you might enjoy the books of James Herriot, a veterinarian plying his trade in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales of northern England. The stories take place before World War 2, in the days when farmers still used horse-drawn implements on their farms, and every veterinarian had to be knowledgeable about every species of animal. Hilarious, heartwarming, and poignant. Warning: will make you want to become a veterinarian. (That's what happened to Clare...) Go to Clare's Bookshop.org store and look for the "Clare's Favorites" section. You'll get a discount and your purchase will support this Very Serious Podcast. Thanks!
