Nick Trout, a veterinary surgeon at Boston's Angell Memorial Animal Medical Center, has 25 years of experience dealing with animals and their owners, and in that time he's seen it all: miracles and tragedy, loss and laughter. In TELL ME WHERE IT HURTS he combines his decades of experiences and anecdotes into a single day, beginning in the early morning with an emergency call about an injured animal. Trout writes with a keen sense of humor, and wonderful empathy, and this book should appeal not only to animal lovers, but to anyone interested in the human spirit.
