Doctor Hugh: My Life with Animals

Dr Hugh Wirth, Australias best-known vet, and long-standing RSPCA president and animal rights activist, gives a frank and lively account of the pets and animal welfare issues that have shaped his life.

In the vein of All Creatures Great And Small, Living My Life For Animals is packed with humorous and poignant anecdotes about pets he has treated and owners hes told off – both from his days practicing as a young country vet and then in his busy suburban practice in Balwyn, Victoria.

Written in Dr Hughs unmistakable tell-it-as-it-is voice, this memoir will delight, inform and entertain, while teaching every one of us how to care for animals and understand their rights in the modern world.
