Those experiences planted the seed that evolved into my becoming one of them, a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, and enabled me to spend over half a century doing what I loved to do: work with animals and take care of their health needs.
This book is filled with true stories about some of the more memorable experiences with animals--and people involved with them--during my career as a veterinarian: relieving pain, diagnosing, and treating various ailments and injuries.
Following are a few examples of stories that I have included in this book:
The dog wasn't injured as the mother and daughter thought. She was terminally ill with a deadly disease that could spread to people and the three of us had been exposed to it.
The horse was known to be a man-killer in Mexico. He hated men (but loved women and children) and I needed to pass a stomach tube on him to treat his colic. I feared for my life.
Fracture repair on an alligator.
The foreign body in the dog's stomach was an unexpected item. What??!
Judy was caught between a pack of coyotes and the business end of a gun and probably had only a few days left to live in the wilds of Kansas....until we found her.
Honey limped into my exam room on three legs. Her left front leg was useless because of the severe displacement in the carpal joint just above her foot. Her young life had been rough but started getting better on that very day. She was the most intelligent dog I have ever known and became an important member of our family.
The night I shared my bedroom with a rabid dog.
Without the rabies epidemic there was a good chance I would not have survived financial issues early in my career. I had three encounters with the deadly disease and, fortunately, the first one occurred at a time when I was barely making ends meet and considering scrapping my plan to start my own practice. The increased workload and income that resulted from that one case of rabies gave me a chance.
It seems appropriate that I give credit to the disease by naming this book after it.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.

To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.

You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.

The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
