#59 Christopher Little: The Dog Care Handbook -Things I Wish My Vet Had Told Me

Barks from the Bookshelf

We hope we find you well Bookshelvers!?

What an insightful and delightful chat we had with Dr Chris Little here at Barks HQ. This was one of those chats FULL of great advice and stories. Have you ever wanted to nurture a better relationship with your vet? Would you like to simultaneously increase your knowledge of dogs as well as gain a deeper understanding of important and common diseases that our dogs might develop? Well if this is you then The Dog Care Handbook is the book for you! Arguably, no other book we’ve read and aimed at the public provides such a wide-ranging remit covering the health and well-being of our dogs. Chris takes us all through a journey into understanding and cultivating relationships with our veterinarian friends as what the landscape looks like from within the veterinary world. Nat and Steve review the book and Steve drops the (not so secret) big news he’s been sat on! Enjoy us massaging your inner ears for a tiny wee while… woof!
