Dr. Sanders handed me the flashlight after I jumped into the pigpen. Then he scrambled in after me. The wind still stung our faces as it blew through the wide slats in the fence. We duck walked back toward the corner the boys had pointed out to us. At least all the manure was frozen solid.

Dr. Sanders handed me the flashlight after I jumped into the pigpen. Then he scrambled in after me. The wind still stung our faces as it blew through the wide slats in the fence. We duck walked back toward the corner the boys had pointed out to us. At least all the manure was frozen solid. This would be just as interesting in the summer, I thought. ~ from "Twas the Night Before Christmas" - The Making of a Country Veterinarian ------------------This second edition of Dr. David E. Larsen's fifth book in his Memoirs of a Country Vet series contains all the stories from the first edition plus many new ones that continue to describe his early years in veterinary medicine. From tending to a sick cow when he was a kid, through high school, college, an Army enlistment, more college and, finally, veterinary school, this active farm boy with a diverse background from Oregon's Coquille River Valley became the country vet he aspired to and his struggles and life events and challenges that shaped him as a veterinarian. For forty years, Dave served the animals in his care with skill and expertise and their owners with knowledge, grace, and humor.
Autorenporträt
Dr. David E. Larsen grew up on a farm in the Coquille River Valley of Southwestern Oregon. Animals and their care have always been a big part of his life from the time he was young, but it took four years in the Army to give him the maturity he needed to complete his education. He graduated from Oregon State University with a degree in zoology, then attended Colorado State University and received his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 1975 at age thirty.With a growing family, he moved first to Enumclaw, Washington, then moved to Sweet Home, Oregon, and started the Sweet Home Veterinary Clinic, and practiced there for over forty years before he retired. Today he spends his time with his family, writing and doing a little fishing. Interested in seeing much more of Oregon and the rest of this country, Dave and his wife, Sandy, are eager to travel when they can.
