Goat Medicine

My hubby got me a book called Goat Medicine. It is huge, 2007 edition, and has every conceivable issue you can imagine.

Or so he says...stupid UPS didn't deliver it yet!!! But it's coming.

I'm so excited to have an at-hand reference. When I got the horses, I breezed through several horse vet books so I wouldn't get taken by surprise. The knowledge gained was invaluable. I can't wait to do the same with this one!!

There is no better way to train a vet than to tuck your Goat Medicine under your arm, or better, buy him/her one for christmas. vicki

Where did he find a 2007 edition? I've been searching and can't find one.
Did you receive it yet?
