Horse Vet
Horse Vet: Chronicles of a Mobile Veterinarian | Courtney S. Diehl
1 post | 1 read
Gunshot injuries. Breeding disasters. Controlling trainers, nutty horse owners, warm hearted clients and "laugh-out-loud-funny stories that you just can't make up"- Dr. Courtney deals with it all in this lively series of tales about the life of a mobile vet in the Colorado Rockies. In her stories from thirteen years as a mobile horse vet, whether running IV - fluids on top of a mountain or squaring off against an unethical cutting horse owner who calls her "Little Lady," Diehl makes us laugh, cry and smile. It's a journey that brings the reader onto the farms and into the clinic and shows what it's really like to be a mobile veterinarian.

It's just past midnight but I finished it. I got engrossed and didn't want to stop. Luckily I have tomorrow off so it's fine. I liked it. It's interesting seeing the job from a different field perspective. Some of the client issues are exactly the same. (No surprise there because... blah humans.) Plus I learned a few things. Most notably her work with Dr. Platt DVM and the ground breaking laminitis treatment he pioneered. This was interesting.
