Don't Bite the Doctor (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781088039601)

Real doctors treat more than one species.

At least that's what veterinarian, Jill Bennet tells herself.

On any given day, she may find herself doctoring dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, horses, pigs, or any other furry or feathered patient who crosses her path-striving daily to deliver compassion and competence to all God's creatures, in accordance with Colossians 3:23. Now, with over forty years of practice under her belt, Jill reflects back to her time as a new, young veterinarian in the early eighties-a time when women veterinarians were just beginning to become a presence among the previously male-dominated profession.

Out in the real world, Jill finds herself in situations never covered in veterinary school. It is a journey of learning and laughter, as Jill contends with a variety of animal patients and their eclectic humans attached to the other end of the leash (and the checkbook), as well as less-than-helpful co-workers. Interwoven into this mix of new experiences is her budding romance with the owner of the sock-eating Labrador Retriever. Don't Bite the Doctor promises to bring smiles and tears to anyone who has ever been owned by an animal.
