Gallery Books, a division Simon & Schuster UK, has acquired World rights to Dogs (and their humans): stories of healing and hope from the Supervet’s surgery, a moving, funny and at times heartbreaking celebration of our relationship with man’s best friend by world leading veterinarian Professor Noel Fitzpatrick. Publishing Director Holly Harris acquired World rights from Amanda Harris at YMU.
Professor Noel Fitzpatrick is a world-renowned neuro-orthopaedic veterinary surgeon, the founder of Fitzpatrick Referrals in Surrey and best known as the Supervet from the popular Channel 4 television series and no.1 bestselling author.
Globally recognised for his innovative surgical solutions for animals, Noel has developed dozens of new surgical techniques and implants, including world-firsts, that have provided hope where none seemed possible. Through his books and his TV show Noel has widely documented the significant impact of his bond with his dog of 14 years, Keira, who passed away in 2021.
Professor Noel Fitzpatrick said
In my consulting room with a dog lying by our feet, I have seen the very best that humanity has to offer and often in the very worst of circumstances. This book is a collection of stories from my practice which show how dogs make us the best humans we can be.
Holly Harris said
Noel has a unique perspective on the role that a dog can play in a family. Through the prism of his surgery, he sees people from all walks of life with one thing in common: true love for their dog. This delightful collection of stories shows us what a pure love that is. We are thrilled to be publishing this wonderful book.
Dogs (and their Humans) is available to pre-order now
