Synopsis

After his mother dies, Tim Daniels must graduate from veterinarian school, find a job, pay-off his loans, keep his girlfriend content, and try to keep his head…all while removing a designer purse from a dog’s stomach. Just another Tuesday morning…
Anxiety has always been Tim’s annoying friend. Embarrassing him in middle school, preventing him from taking chances, but lately, Tim’s friend has become a looming enemy. Faced with the loss of his mother and the stressors of medical school, the young vet has reached a breaking point. 
In the wake of her death, Tim’s mother left him a lump sum to follow his dream of finishing vet school in Scotland. Tim thought the toughest challenges were now behind him. Instead, the fire in his belly leaves a wake of uncertainty. Pushing away the pain of loss and failure, Tim tries to save the lives of his animal patients but wonders if he can save his own.
Dr. Doug Chapman’s breakout novel, A Sweet Veterinary Life, dives into the mind of an insecure doctor who has the desire to do good things, if only he had the strength.
