Very Informative and Useful November 29, 2004
Tab LVT (Michigan)
18 out of 19 found this review helpful
This book was assigned for my Small Animal Diseases class in the vet tech program and it was very helpful. It lists clinical signs, keys to diagnosis, treatments, and client information tips for a variety of diseases of the dog and cat. There are also "Tech Alerts" in bold print that highlight important things to remember about a disease or treatment. The book is easy to read and understand, but not too basic or elementary.
