The loving treatment delivered by the author, a veterinarian with decades of experience making house calls to pets and their owners, and working in clinical settings. After practicing veterinary medicine for over thirty-eight years, Dr. Cohn has penned a moving memoir describing his adventures, as well as many of the lessons he's learned and taught. He portrays those who cherish their pets and others who merely tolerate them. Through anecdotes, pet histories, and unusual experiences, a comprehensive understanding can be gained about just what is good and what is bad for your pets. Dr. Cohn admits he's made mistakes and created successes; he's witnessed the light and dark sides of veterinary medicine. These memories are sandwiched between the incredible stories of his own family pets. Some of his stories may haunt you, some may tickle you, some might bring you to rage or tears-yet overall, these tales will leave you purring. And in this memoir, the author's own pets interject their thoughts, concerns, and stories, in their own... paws. Through an extended appendix, Dr. Cohn brings to life what's truly important in a pet's care; you can help save your pet's health and yourself money by understanding the sound advice the book reveals. Included are sneaky tips on how to brush your dog's teeth, how to prevent mats in a cat's fur, the horrors of some vaccinations, and how to know which are truly important for your pet to receive. Packed with insider revelations, this book answers questions that every pet-lover, or person aspiring to veterinary medicine, will appreciate knowing. Share in the laughter and tears and learn more about pets as you enjoy every page.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vicious Vet continues the tradition in M. C. Beaton's beloved Agatha Raisin cozy mystery series—now a hit show on Acorn TV and public television. A PURR-FECT CRIME IN THE COTSWOLDS Former London PR agent, Agatha Raisin still hasn't adjusted to village life where the only prospect for a hot evening out is a meeting of the Ladies Society. And since her overtures toward James Lacey—the retired military man next door—have failed, Agatha jumps at the chance to visit the new vet, who's single and good-looking. Although Agatha's tabby hasn't a thing wrong with him, Hodge endures having a thermometer shoved up his bum in the name of romance. Unfortunately his sacrifice is all for naught when the vet is soon found dead next to a high-strung horse. The police call the vet's demise a freak accident, but Agatha convinces the hard-to-get James Lacey, who's also bored in the Cotswolds, that playing amateur detective might be fun. Unfortunately, just like curiosity killed the cat, Agatha's inept snooping is soon a motivation for murder...
