Starting from her birth in Missouri on a Fourth of July, the biography of renowned Veterinarian Dr. Ava Frick, an acknowledged animal whisperer and Founding Inductee to the Animal Chiropractic Hall of Fame, intermingles her life story with reminiscences (in her own words) of certain animals who made a difference in and altered her life as much or more than she made a difference in theirs. Frick is a 40-year-experienced veterinarian and outspoken, outside-the-box proponent of innovative healthcare for animals large and small.
