Very Helpful!

Very Nice reference, great to have all that information in one book. Has very easy to locate information in table format.

A "must-have" for anyone seriously pursuing or engaged in the field of veterinary medicine for dogs

Spiral-bound to lay flat for easy reference, Veterinary Technician's Daily Reference Guide: Cats and Dogs covers all aspects of a technician's responsibility when looking after dogs and cats, from simple physical examination to specific nursing and technical procedures. Information is cross-referenced with chapter tabs for ease of quickly looking up critical matters. Almost 200 images (more than 100 of them new) illustrate this solid resource, assembled by two experts each with an associate degree in veterinary technology. A "must-have" for anyone seriously pursuing or engaged in the field of veterinary medicine for dogs and cats.

Best book ever!

I recently had to buy this book again because I lost my first copy (my coworkers probably stole it, it's that good! [j/k]). But I love this book. It's an excellent reference manual, love the format (charts make it easy to compare (e.g., symptoms of distemper and parvo)), nice organization, love the color plates...really, nothing bad at all about it! And for the low price, it's worth it a thousand times over. Buy this book!

Perfect Book to have on hand

This book is great. When I got it I was just starting out in the field. When I didn't understand a term used by the Dr. or what a medication was prescribed for. This book would tell me. I love it. Great to keep at the clinic, for on hand info.

Veterinary Technicians Daily Reference Guide

Cut to the chase! That is what this book is all about. If I'm in a hurry to find the answer I don't want to hunt through the text to find what I'm looking for. The chart format lays it all out for quick review. Also, it is much easier to view options in similar categories. This is truly a book that lives up to it's title. Definately want to keep this book close by for easy access. Why didn't someone think of this sooner?
