The funny and shocking true stories from life as a vet
Gareth Steel was born and grew up in rural Southwest Scotland. As a
result of a broken arm during a rugby game and the extra study time
it imposed, he did better in his exams than he could possibly have
expected.
He was accepted into the School of Veterinary Medicine at the
University of Glasgow in 1998 and graduated in 2003. With
occasional breaks for trips to the mountains and working abroad, he
has worked in veterinary medicine ever since.
Gareth currently works in South Wales and still enjoys all things
outdoors. Never Work With Animals is his first book.
‘A great book by an incredible guy’ – Bear Grylls ‘Packed with self-deprecating and darkly comic anecdotes… but there’s plenty of warmth, too.’ – The Sunday Times ‘In this fascinating and humorous memoir, Gareth reveals the unfiltered truth of life as a vet and the desperate lengths we go to for the love of animals.’ – Sunday Express ‘Gareth Steels shows the challenging reality of his day-to-day life in this informative and entertaining account of his career.’ – Daily Mirror ‘This gritty yet tender-hearted book is essential reading for anyone thinking of training as [a vet]. It will leave you with renewed respect for Britain’s vets and the difficult, emotionally draining work they carry out.’ – Daily Mail
