In veterinarian "James Herriot's Favorite Dog Stories" we learn that Tricki Woo has a wide grin, a lolling tongue, enjoys Chinese food and does not like swearing! He is one of the eight fascinating dogs we are introduced to in this collection. There is a dramatic surgery on one patient named Jake - a lurcher, or cross-bred greyhound - who had the life threatening condition of a pebble caught in his larynx. The urgent procedure is brief and successful and Jake is quickly healed and capering about. The author travels throughout the Yorkshire countryside caring for his furry patients. He describes in vivid detail the unique environment, lifestyle, and personality of each dog as well as the particularly deep connection between the pet and human owner. James Herriot cared for animals of all sizes in his lifetime, but in these stories it is clear that dogs are his favorite. Dog lovers of all ages will enjoy these lively and humorous tales. ~Reviewed by Kate H. (RSSAA parent and Library volunteer, Feb. 2016) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
