Dr. Lose is the first woman equine veterinarian in the United States. She paved the way for all woman veterinary surgeons caring for large animals. Dr. Lose was asked to be the veterinary surgeon for the Fairmount Park Guard, which was later merged to become the Philadelphia Police Mounted Patrol (PPMP). Her tenure with the police was from 1961-1980 The second chapter describes how Dr. Lose became the veterinarian for the PPMP. Two chapters are devoted to the police inspector at that time and to Mayor Frank Rizzo. One chapter describes a brief history of the FPG/PPMP. The remainder of the chapters are stories about individual horses and their police officer partners. The stories are inspiring, sad, humorous, and encouraging.
