Any veterinarians out there preparing for hard times? I am looking for a list of reference books on veterinary care for animals to add to my library. I grew up on a Wisconsin Dairy farm and have done some medical work on animals and have assisted the local vet many times. WHAT VETERINARY BOOKS WOULD YOU RECCOMMEND? WHAT BASIC VET GEAR AND SUPPLIES WOULD YOU RECCOMMEND TO HAVE IN STORAGE? I have the Merck Vet Manual. What are some others? I can be reached at bookman392@aol.com
