Tails of a Country Vet
Abbott "Pete" Smith, D.V.M.
by Gina McKnight
Illustrations by Kelly Lincoln
Abbott “Pete” Smith D.V.M. was an icon in southeastern Ohio for many years. Raised in Maine, a cowboy in Colorado, then finally to Ohio and his own Milliron Clinic, Dr. Smith will remain part of the Ohio Valley that he loved. This book is a testimony to his commitment to life. Through decades in veterinary practice, Dr. Smith realized the impact of animals, how they enrich relationships, enhance our perceptions, and nurture our spirituality. Interviewing hundreds of Dr. Smith’s clients, I found a common thread – a valued relationship between a pet owner and their vet. In Tails of a Country Vet, I present to you many hours of transcription, emails, and letters from Dr. Smith’s clients and staff. Whether they make you giggle, wince, furrow your brow, or remain contemplative, all the stories are heartfelt and sincere.
