Welcome to Litsy!

I really enjoyed this, quirky, funny and at times sad this reminded me a lot of a 70s version of the James Herriot All creatures great and small books.
Bruce was a great narrator and told his story well, from his background and life in Canada and his time London working as a young, new vet.
I loved his sense of humour and how he coped with getting to know our British character and sense of humour.
This was definitely a great read.

Started off enjoying it and I did enjoy hearing all the funny stories of Bruce in his line of work and understand that not every case is successful.
But as an animal lover myself some of the behind the scenes situations and feelings towards animals at this point in time just totally jarred.
I was horrified to read of the callous disregard towards live experiments for vets to practice on.
So to be completely honest I kind of switched off a bit.
