Celebrates the gift of pets. In this second memoir, the author continues to work at his own veterinary practice in Virginia, meeting adorable pets and their owners every day. These include Precious the parrot, Dahmun, or "Mountain of Love," the Bull Mastiff, and Greco the beagle shepherd mix, who likes to eat rocks.
In Coston's enjoyable second memoir, he again celebrates the gift of pets. Coston continues to work at his own veterinary practice in Virginia, meeting adorable pets and their loving and quirky owners every day. These include Precious the parrot, remarkably friendly and unafraid for a bird, Dahmun, or "Mountain of Love," the Bull Mastiff, named by his linguist owner in a language he created, and Greco the beagle shepherd mix, who likes to eat rocks because he is too macho to chew on toys, his Greek owner insists.
