Colorado Animals and Their Favorite Vet

I spent almost two years observing everyday events at The Animal Clinic of Woodland Park Colorado. It began with a visit to Dr. David Volz to determine if our dog Heidi needed surgery because she injured a back leg. Volz explained he'd had knee surgery the week before thus it was easier to examine our 74-pound dog on the floor. He wanted to x-ray Heidi to be sure his examination concurred with his diagnosis for surgery. While Volz and Heidi were still on the floor I blurted out Would you let me write a book about you? He didn't blink as he calmly said Yes. We'd never met before that day yet we seemed to comfortably bond. About ten days later we met late one day after he finished work for coffee and to get acquainted. I gave him a copy of my other books to help him have more awareness of me as a writer. (Later on I learned his wife is a journalist.)
