In a moment of spontaneous generosity, he offered to examine the dog and treat him for free. It was the first step in a now nine-year journey that has taken Dr. Kwane from Skid Row to San Francisco and beyond to care for pets and their humans who are living on the streets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eWhat It Takes to Save a Life, \u003c\/em\u003e Dr. Kwane shows how our four-legged, feathered, scaled, and swimming family members--these dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and other animals that live side by side with us--provide more than companionship. They offer essential love, hope, and a sense of security.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten with striking honesty and rich detail, Dr. Kwane looks back on his childhood, how he discovered his appreciation for animals and his calling, and offers a frank assessment of the state of veterinary medicine today, where compassion fatigue, burnout, and suicide are facts of life. Full of warm and inspiring stories of human-animal relationships, this powerful and eye-opening book is a reminder that we are all members of a wider family. It is also a clarion call for each of us to help those in need--especially our most vulnerable brothers and sisters--and the animals who are their families. Wise and warm, Dr. Stewart's story is a reminder that one life can make an immeasurable difference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 224\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.58 x 8.06 x 5.37 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 28, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51985247109421,"sku":"9780063215832","price":20.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0938\/3185\/6429\/files\/8earDr5rSl9780063215832.webp?v=1776113591","url":"https:\/\/ishookbooks.com\/products\/what-it-takes-to-save-a-life-a-veterinarians-quest-for-healing-and-hope-paperback","provider":"iShook Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
