Herriot's Favorite Dog Stories is a must-have gift book for any dog

"When I decided to be a vet, I knew that I wanted to be a dog doctor, so
I could spend all my time with dogs." - from the Introduction
James Herriot would go on to become so much more than a dog doctor. But
no animal was dearer to his heart, and no animal provided him with more
heartwarming and wonderful tales. With over a million copies sold,
James Herriot's Favorite Dog Stories has inspired dog lovers the world
over. After being out of print for many years, it is now again available
in an affordable, beautifully repackaged hardcover edition, filled with
original watercolors that illustrate Herriot's charming and wholesome
tales.
This classic heartwarming collection of ten stories about dogs - from
border collies and sheepdogs to the exploits of Tricki Woo, the
unforgettable Pekinese - by the late author of All Creatures Great and
Small is prefaced by a moving introduction from Herriot himself - the
very last piece of writing the beloved author ever completed. So, follow
the master veterinarian as he journeys through Yorkshire, caring for big
dogs and small with his characteristic gentleness and peace, profound
observation, and deep, loving humor.
