Dr. T, Lone Star Vet

Having watched Dr. Thielen on Dr. K's show, I have always been impressed by her knowledge and care for the animals. In her own show, I have been further impressed by her humor and dedication. I found each episode to be entertaining, moving and educational. I certainly hope there are more episodes to come. I have gone back and watched more Dr. K after watching the first season of this show. She seems to have more knowledge than her age allows, and I am always amazed by how accurate her diagnoses are. I'm a fan!

I have watched my share of vet shows (Critter Fritters, Dr. Oakley, Dr. Pol, Love & Pets and Heartland Docs) and this one was the worst one of them all. She didn't know what she was doing half of the time, she would deliberately put animals in more discomfort than they were already in, whenever an animal was starting to flatline, she wouldn't treat it as an emergency (I remember watching Critter Fritters and they stopped everything they were doing, called everyone on deck and addressed the emergency immediately. She did none of these things, instead chose to walk to the table slowly, listen to to the heart beat, sigh, say the animal's breathing was shallow, sigh again and continue to listen until it eventually died). When an animal would die, she had very little bedside manner with the owners and wouldn't seem to care about the animal's passing. All of these occurred in ONE episode. I was finally over screaming at the TV and decided I couldn't even finish the first season.

Every time I see a "new episode" it ends up being reruns of the same segments over and over. They've even used another name I think "Vet Exotic" to pass off the same rerun segments.

I love Dr T. She isn't afraid to tell the owner of the pet what's wrong and how to fix it.

I think it's very weird that Dr. T is not allowed to perform surgery where she works now but when she worked for Dr. K she was allowed, I thought it was very inappropriate that Dr. Nixon wanted to finish a surgery so that he could take credit for it even though Dr. T started it.
