Publisher's summary

Four-legged patients and two-legged masters...

In this collection of stories from his life, Israeli veterinarian Dr. Yair Ben Ziony shares his fascinating experiences with animals that moo, bark, bay, and purr. Whether describing days in his private small-animal clinic, his travel in the newly independent state of Israel tending to farm animals, or his four years in pre-revolutionary Iran managing a dairy farm, Ben Ziony writes with precision, wit, and charm.

His sensitive eye reveals the beauty and nuance in every situation, as he evinces empathy not only for his four-legged patients but also for their two-legged masters, who often prove as intriguing and unpredictable as their charges. Each tale - be it amusing, sad, shocking, or simply strange - gives the listener fresh insight into the intricacies of the human-animal relationship.

A fun listen for anyone interested in vetmed!

It was very interesting to see the common and uncommon senarios presented. My only reason for not giving it 5/5 in story was that it was a little choppy to jump from one chapter to the next with such slow transition. Its not exactly a bad thing, but if the title had included a subtitle that mentioned this was a series of journal entry it would have read better because I would have expected the jump from one chapter to the next. Thank you for bringing us this book!

Love at first bite

I’m Sorry I purchased. Didn’t finish. No James Herriot and nowhere close to his quality
