Details

Synopsis A German Shepard with toxic stomach gas, a newborn foal who's barely alive, and a python in serious condition are just a few of the cases covered in this exciting and informative book about a Colorado veterinary emergency room. People aren't the only ones who experience life-threatening medical emergencies: dogs, cats, birds, and even hedgehogs go through horrible ordeals of their own. Not only does the author provide an educational history of veterinary science, but she also discusses a variety of individual cases, discussing everything from surgery to how to handle a pet emergency. Accompanied by sometimes explicit full-color photographs.
