Doc, Were You Sleeping?

Each day (and night) brings surprises into a rural veterinarian’s life, especially when he is a solo practitioner taking all calls, including emergencies while treating a myriad of animals and dealing with unique animal owners and characters. Dr. Green has allowed readers of this book to get a glimpse of rural veterinary medicine while enjoying humorous and heartwarming stories. The stories in this book are sometimes unbelievable but definitely true. Days and nights were sometimes very long, and the work was frequently difficult. However, Dr. Green shares his feelings about how much he loved veterinary medicine and the rewards he received. He is now retired and enjoying more rest and sleep at a much slower pace without that dreaded phone call that began with Doc, were you sleeping?
