Warm and heartfelt stories and amusing anecdotes from the life of a vet in God’s Own County. Julian Norton has been a vet for over twenty years, and in that time he has treated animals of each kind – snakes and lizards, fish and fowl, sheep, goats, alpacas, cows, horses, swans … you name it, Julian has seen it and, perhaps, made it better! In A Yorkshire Vet Through the Seasons, Julian recounts more inspirational tales from his life, the animals he has treated and the people he has met, in addition to taking us through the seasons, showing the challenges and surprises that occur at the most unlikely times. His voice, well known from the tv series A Yorkshire Vet on Channel 5, comes over loud and clear in his writing, and the compassion and professionalism he’s known for on the TV shines brightly through these pages. Whether he’s tending to a domestic pet at his practice in Thirsk or referred to as out to an injured swan in the course of a cold Yorkshire night, the animals all the time come first and Julian’s passion and commitment are all the time to the fore. Full of drama, small triumphs, sadness and happiness, this book is an inspiration for any person who loves animals in addition to those who dream of turning into a vet.
