Written by Claire Corridan and beautifully illustrated by Elettra Cudignotto, this book aims to involve children in dog ownership, by guiding them through the process of taking the dog to visit the vet. Shadow's Trip to the Vet promotes both preventative and emergent veterinary care in animals by teaching children how to recognize when their pet is feeling unwell and what to do to help them. Thinking about reducing stress levels in animals ? how to recognize stress, how to respond to a stressed animal and learning what to do to help ? will improve knowledge and encourage empathy for both animals and people.
