Producer/Host: Dr. John Hunt About the host: My Sunday morning short has been running for about 11 years. I\u2019ve cover a wide range of animal related topics from COVID to porcupines. After graduating from Michigan State University Veterinary School in 1982 I practiced at three different veterinary hospitals in the Hartford, Conn area for 5 years. Then I bought a small part time clinic in Bucksport and turned it into a full time small animal surgery and medicine hospital. From 1987 to 2014 I enjoyed serving the Bucksport-Orland area pet owners. My kids grew up in Bucksport. I was a Boy Scoutmaster for a few years, and coached cross country and track in the Bucksport school system for 20 years. I\u2019ve written three books working on a fourth. I sold my practice and retired from practicing medicine in 2014. Since \u201cretiring\u201d I\u2019ve continued Pet Sounds and my monthly Lets Talk Animals show on WERU. I\u2019ve been teaching at local community colleges, officiating at high school track meets, writing and started a blog on line. I enjoy hiking, reading, writing and anticipate spending more time with my first grandchild.
