ABOUT DR. SKAGGS
Dr. Skaggs' roots are in a small town in Texas. For as long as he can remember, he loved animals and made it his mission to become a veterinarian. Throughout his career serving the Texas and Oklahoma panhandles, he began jotting down his unique experiences occurring with animals and their owners. As a country vet, his practice isn’t specialized or limited to dogs, cats, birds, exotic animals, or livestock. His clinic takes whatever patients walk in the door and he never knows what that might include. The work can be messy, is often loud, sometimes dangerous and often humorous.
Dr. Skaggs is a graduate of Texas A&M University Veterinary Medicine. He grew up in Pampa, Texas and attended Texas Tech University for his undergraduate studies.
WHAT FOLKS ARE SAYING
"Vets have a kind of double vision on the human experience. They see us as the clients who bring in the patients and pay the bill, but they also see our sins, flaws and weirdness reflected in our animals. Dr. Skaggs recognized early on that this was a rich source of humor - not riducle, not humor that cuts, but the kind of organic humor that allows us to laugh at ourselves."
