This book is dedicated with love to: the millions of devoted and caring pet lovers of the world, and to all the animals who share the earth with us, especially the world's pets, who show us what it means to love fully and unconditionally.
We also dedicate this book to all veterinarians and their team members,
whose big hearts and dedicated, compassionate service make us proud
beyond measure to honor and support them.
To our hero, James Herriot, the Yorkshire veterinarian who has touched the lives of millions of people and forever changed the way we view the special connection between mankind and the rest of the animal kingdom. May his star always shine brightly!
And finally, to God, from whom all blessings flow, whose loving hand daily manifests itself through our pets--who are our angels, friends, teachers and healers.
