Lucky Dog: How Being a Veterinarian Saved My Life

What happens when a veterinary surgical oncologist (laymen’s term: cancer surgery doctor) thinks she has cancer herself? 

A hilarious, heartwarming, and inspiring memoir by a renowned veterinary oncologist who tells us what our most beloved pets can teach us about health care and ourselves, Lucky Dog teaches its readers to trust their instincts, be their own advocates, and laugh while doing it. 

"The author’s lively storytelling and wry, self-deprecating humor ensure that her story is never a drab, hospital-green perspective on illness, and readers will root for her as they accompany Boston on her unexpected journey and spend time with some wonderful dogs along the way." -- Publishers Weekly
