This is a wonderful book that is well written and easy to read. The author gives great insight into his life as a vet. Readers of all ages will find this book entertaining and captivating.

Any human that is owned by any kind of city or country critter will really enjoy this book...it is filled with hilarious adventures and heart warming, tear jerking accounts of the daily life of a citified rural veterinarian, just trying to do the work he loves the best he can, and still maintain his sanity. This book has earned a 'keep it and read it again' spot right next to my collection of James Herriot's memoirs.

Heartwarming, heart tugging and funny--it's a perfect book for any animal lover. Think Cleveland Amory meets Baxter Black. More like James Herriot's writing than anything I ever read. A fun and easy-to-read collection of short stories that truly describes the life of a Texas veterinarian. I couldn't put it down!

This was the greatest book ever.
I liked the stories cause they made me laugh and sad too.
I think it was a very good book

Dallas Doc is a great book of anecdotes about being a vet in Dallas/Texas. I enjoyed the stories a lot but was left wanting more substance, thus the 4 stars instead of 5.

However, if you like animals and the people who care for them you will like this book and the sequel, Texas Doc.

Just as good as James Herriott Books. American twist and great for animal lovers and those who love Texas. Interesting. Read by my 15 year old niece as well and got her started on reading.
