Attributes of Never Turn Your Back on an Angus Cow PDF
Dr. Jan Pol is not your typical veterinarian. Born and raised the Netherlands on a dairy farm, he is the star of Nat Geo Wild’s hit show The Incredible Dr. Pol and has been treating animals in rural Michigan since the 1970s. Dr. Pol’s more than 20,000 patients have ranged from white mice to 2600-pound horses and everything in between.Never Turn Your Back on an Angus Cow PDF
From the time he was twelve years old and helped deliver a litter of piglets on his family’s farm to the incredible moments captured on his hit TV show, Dr. Pol has amassed a wealth of stories of what it’s like caring for this menagerie of animals. He shares his own story of growing up surrounded by animals, training to be a vet in the Netherlands, and moving to Michigan to open his first practice in a pre fab house. He has established himself as an empathetic yet no-nonsense vet who isn’t afraid to make the difficult decisions in order to do what’s best for his patients—and their hard-working owners. A sick pet can bring heartache, but a sick cow or horse could threaten the very livelihood of a farmer whose modest profits are dependent on healthy livestock.
Reminiscent of the classic books of James Herriot, Never Turn Your Back on an Angus Cow is a charming, fascinating, and funny memoir that will delight animal lovers everywhere.

Very Real and True to life, and death. A Country Vet telling as it is.
March 10, 2017
Dr Pol doesn’t mess with words, he tells it as it is. Life is not fair, nor is it easy and being a large animal vet is hard work and requires difficult decisions. This is not like his show, instead it is an inside look to his thoughts and how he does his job.I enjoyed reading his blunt and realistic thoughts and ideas. Indeed there are some funny stories as well as some tough stories that hit close to home. I highly recommend this book, but caution the reader that this is real life and death country vet life. Don’t expect a gentle and soft life, expect reality.

Drl Pol At His Best
September 12, 2016
At first I was leary about getting this book. I love the show The Incredible Dr. Pol so much that I was worried that the book might be done by some ghost writer and I wouldn’t like it. I just couldn’t figure out how Dr. Pol would have time to write a book. I was greatly surprised. Read this book is like what I would imagine an evening with Dr Pol must be like. Him telling you all about his life as a vet. To me even though I don’t know the Pol’s it was like sitting down with an old friend. The book has great stories and commentary and I loved it. My only complaint is the book is too short. lol. If you watch the show, you won’t be disappointed, if you don’t watch the show, you won’t be disappointed. I feel that most people will love this book.

Wonderful, easy, and fascinating read

I flew through this book, and I don’t think I’m that fast of a reader so that’s saying something. The book is written as if you feel like Dr. Pol is speaking directly to you. There are so many lessons to be learned from this man, and I wish the book was 10x longer. No doubt he has an insane amount of stories he has left out due to length. Dr. Pol is not just a rare gem in the vet world, but just in the world in general. This is not a fuzzy, feel-good perspective on his career and life. He gets down to all angles (good, bad, ugly, funny, gross, emotional, touching, terrifying, surprising, frustrating…you name it). I appreciated all of the different stories and angles that allowed me to gain quite a bit of perspective. The perspective of the rural farmer, the rural vet, the WW2 Netherlands rural life (during and post), the old school vet education. I also loved that Dr. Pol always tried to do right by the owner and animal in so many ways. It’s truly a testament to his character. This may be a shorter and quicker read but that doesn’t mean it’s lacking in any way! I’d give this book to anyone and everyone I know…and I will more than likely be rereading this soon!

He seems like one of the family!

I watch The Incredible Dr. Pol show all the time, and I thought it would be interesting to read his story. I learned lots of facts I didn’t know about both small and large animals and watching the show helped to understand some of the animal conditions described in the book. I learned some interesting facts like dogs have many more blood types than humans, and it is rare for cows to have twins. What I liked most about the book though, was not the stories about the animals, but the stories about Dr. Pol and his family.
Learning about how Dr. Pol grew up during WWII in Europe was quite interesting. He came here from the Netherlands and followed the American Dream. Dr. Pol came to America as an exchange student and stayed for a lifetime. He got married, started his own business in his garage with his wife, and they’ve worked side by side ever since. Now over 40 years later, he truly is living the American Dream. Many of his qualities remind me of my grandfather: Never be afraid of hard work, never give up, find a job you love; treat others as you want to be treated (even animals), stay grounded, and it’s great to be young at heart.
If you are interested in animals or if you like reading about hard working people who came to America and became a success story, this book is worth the read.
