About the author

Sharing time and experience with animals makes humans more honest, more real. Looking into an animal's or pet's eyes allows us a mirror into ourselves. We all become more honest, truthful, trustworthy because of our associations with our animal friends. They define us. I have written books for adults and young adults about the human/animal bond and how our pets complement us as humans. At once funny and thought-provoking, readers will return for more of my tales of tails to escape the real world and participate in the unusual world of veterinary medicine about which I write with warmth, humor, and an appreciation of the earth and her creatures.

This was such a great read. It provided a whole bunch of things all in one book! Education, opinion, humour and was thoroughly enjoyed by me (and the family I passed it on to).
The author is a wonderful writer and a proud advocate for animals! If you love animals (especially pot belly pigs), READ THIS BOOK.
