Never Say Die: New Adventures of a Country Vet
Come along on another adventure with Dr. Dave Perrin, as he continues his veterinary career in a tiny rural town, with all the ups and downs of life in the 1970's.
Dave has a new lease on life as he resumes his busy veterinary practice in rural British Columbia. He's even squeezed in a new project - building his dream home under the majestic Skimmerhorns in the peaceful farming community of Lister, B.C.
As he and his father wrangle over construction methods and almost everything else, Dave puts in overtime to deal with the medical concerns of his endearing clients. He meets some of the most improbable clients and frustrating case of his career. His small animal practice thrives as snakes with indigestion, traumatized rabbits, and alcoholic dogs are deposited on his exam table.
His large animal patients include horses with mysterious ailments, hogs that beep, heifers from hell, and goats that definitely have his number. They all provide the good doctor with challenges and excitement - enought to keep him from being bored in the backwoods of the Kootenays. His friend and assistant, Doris, figures prominently in keeping the anxious vet on the straight and narrow. As usual, his loving German shepherd, Lug, makes himself useful in desperate times.
As reviewers say, "Dr. Perrin tells a good story." His book series, "Adventures of a Country Vet" is an international bestseller.
