About this listen

From his childhood love of animals, through his training and first steps in the profession and the pressures and challenges faced by vets, dealing with unexpected exotic pets - and handling excitable humans too - Julian Norton has seen all sides of the veterinary world and writes about it all with humour and affection.

Just as happy calving a cow, treating a dehydrated chameleon or tending to the overgrown teeth of a rabbit, his passion for his work shines through in every chapter, as does his love for Yorkshire. With a foreword by James Herriott's son Jim Wight, Julian's story brings to life the world of the working vet and the highs and lows he and his colleagues face on a daily basis.

Sorry...but too much non..vet stuff.....being a Herriott passionate...,I was expecting more vetty stuff....I ended up fast forwarding thru the Himalayas and marathons.....
the rest was pure delight.....loved the insight into the TV series....which I watch religiously over and over... reruns are old friends.....was booked to visit UK this year with Thirsk as number 1 on our list....damned Covid19 has put a hold on our trip.

not what I expected
