"To be honest with you, Doc," Wayne said. "We have had her for going on three years this coming spring, and we haven't wormed her. Is that something you can do for her now, treat the lice and give her some worm medication?" "We're going to do that. Then I'm going to give her some medication and a bottle of glucose. Hopefully, we can get her up and get her somewhere to warm up and be protected from the snow and the cold. Do you have any room in that garage?" "My wife's car is in there," Wayne said. "I would guess we could move the car out and bed the horse down in the garage," I said. "My wife doesn't like getting into a cold car when she goes to work in the morning," Wayne said. "That car isn't going to die if it is outside overnight," I said. "This horse is going to be dead in the morning if she stays here all night." In these real-life stories from forty years of veterinary practice in a small community in western Oregon, Dr. David E. Larsen captures the essence of his daily life in solo veterinary practice in the 1970s and 80s. His vivid portrayals of both his patients and their owners provide the reader with a glimpse of that life.
