Growing up in Yorkshire and with farming blood in his genes, James Greenwood always knew he would become a vet. Animals have been part of James' life for as long as he can remember, from pulling lambs on a hilltop farm as a child, to renting a flat behind a zoo in Jersey and finding himself treating a newborn elephant as a newly qualified vet. Written with warmth and humour, James offers a fascinating insight into the world of veterinary medicine with tales of treating all sorts of animals, as well as remembering his relationship with his much-missed, one-eyed Labrador, Oliver.
