I personally really enjoyed this book, but agree that it is not so much for the casual pet owner as it is for someone familiar/interested in the veterinary field. Gives you a glimpse into the lives of a few of the main characters at Angell Memorial Animal Hospital. A must read for anyone considering becoming a veterinarian.
Great Animal Stories

I love animal stories, so I bought this book. But, it was so much more. The stories of the people who dedicate their lives to saving, or at least trying to save, pets were very moving. The book was well written and made for a fun read. I would recommend it to anyone who has ever had a pet.

Whether you are interested in veterinary medicine or just love of animals, this is a must read. Some of the cases make you laugh, some make you cry, but all in all the entire book is difficult to put down, once you've started it.
