COCK AND BULL STORIES
Tales from Two Kiwi Country Vets
Peter Jerram & Peter Anderson
Blood testing an elephant. Dodging an angry bull with a prolapsed prepuce. Seeing to 100 stroppy stags. Tranquilising wild cats. For more than 30 years Marlborough vets Peter Jerram (the sailing vet) and Peter Anderson (the flying vet) have been sharing a laugh over cases like these and plenty more besides.
Now, beginning with their first days at work as wet-behind-the-ears young country vets, they’ve collected their hilarious tales together as Cock and Bull Stories.
They’ve met all sorts of creatures: endearing, dangerous, distressed, angry, comical, heroic, four-legged and two. You’ll encounter them in the pages of this book as the two Petes share their insights into country life, reflect on the beauty of the Marlborough landscape, meditate on the nature of friendship and recall their varied veterinary adventures … best taken with a therapeutic dram of whisky.
