Reviews
""Just read Dr. Ron Warner's Pigs, Pets and Public Health. Very enjoyable read and relatable as I am a veterinarian myself. Can't wait for his next production."" --Terry N. Teeple, DVM ""If a young person expresses interest in becoming a veterinarian, reading Pigs, Pets, and Public Health: One Veterinarian's Journey should not simply be suggested but highly recommended - especially if the young person is from the rural farmlands of the Midwest or the ""hollers"" of Appalachia. Dr. Warner's book mixes anecdotes, some poignant and some humorous, with detailed forays into the biological science of everything from bacteria to bison. From providing care for military dogs to supervising food safety; from performing investigative epidemiology to helping pioneer studies of the links between human and animal health; from teaching a new generation of veterinary students to helping a local veterinarian to birth a calf, all are part of Dr. Warner's remarkable career."" --Gary Goff, BS, MEd, JD ""This book will appeal to anyone interested in becoming a veterinarian or reading about Dr. Warner's practice, practicing public health, and those with an interest in reading about a Noble County kid and his journey in a wider world."" --The Journal and the Noble County Leader, June 23, 2025
