"Field Manual for Small Animal Medicine is a one-of-a-kind comprehensive guide for those interested in large-scale veterinary and shelter work with small animals....this book excels in illustrating the most commonly encountered field conditions.... The book outlines various protocols from gold-standard protocols to alternative protocols. This is important because resources are often limited in the field and you have to be creative with what resources are available." JAVMA, MAR 15, 2019, VOL 254, NO. 6
