"For all animal lovers ... Few books ... approach the combination of fine writing, radical honesty, and endless optimism found [in these] veterinary tales." (Booklist, starred review)
With insight and humor, Dr. Philipp Schott shares tales from the unlikely path he took into his career as a veterinarian and anecdotes from his successful small-animal clinic. Dr. Schott brings to his writing the benefit of many years of expertise. Wisdom he imparts on readers includes the best way to give your cat a pill, how to prevent your very handy dog from opening a fridge, and how to handle your fish when it has half-swallowed another.
Through these and other experiences, Dr. Schott also learned that veterinary medicine is as much, if not more, about the people as it is the animals. And he will have you laughing and crying as you embark on this journey of discovery with him. "Filled with heartwarming stories any animal lover will enjoy. It's informative and entertaining, much like our pets themselves!" ― eresa Rhyne, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller The Dog Lived (and So Will I)
"Who amongst us animal lovers hasn't fantasized being a vet? Well, read Philipp Schott's highly entertaining and informative book and learn exactly what you'd be in for―all the poignancy, hilarity, and plain hard work. You may decide to keep your day job, but you'll be a much better animal companion for having picked up the many insider tips Schott imparts." ―Barbara Gowdy, award-winning author of The White Bone and Helpless

Dateiformat: ePUBKopierschutz: Wasserzeichen-DRM (Digital Rights Management)
Systemvoraussetzungen:
Das Dateiformat ePUB ist sehr gut für Romane und Sachbücher geeignet - also für „fließenden” Text ohne komplexes Layout. Bei E-Readern oder Smartphones passt sich der Zeilen- und Seitenumbruch automatisch den kleinen Displays an. Mit Wasserzeichen-DRM wird hier ein „weicher” Kopierschutz verwendet. Daher ist technisch zwar alles möglich – sogar eine unzulässige Weitergabe. Aber an sichtbaren und unsichtbaren Stellen wird der Käufer des E-Books als Wasserzeichen hinterlegt, sodass im Falle eines Missbrauchs die Spur zurückverfolgt werden kann.
Weitere Informationen finden Sie in unserer E-Book Hilfe.
