== [http://www.petethevet.com/wp/ Pete Wedderburn The Vet] ==
Pete is a veterinary surgeon with a passion for communicating his love of his work through writing, radio, television and the internet. He is known as Pete The Vet.
His mission is to use the media to act as an advocate on behalf of animals.
He is a partner in a busy 4 vet practice in Bray, Co Wicklow, Ireland, but he spends 50% of my working week on media work.
