Not everything that happens at a vet's office is happy.

It's to be expected that a place that takes care of sick and hurtning animals is going to have sad things happen at it.

I think it's kind of sad, but on the other hand it really gives you an idea of the daily events that happen as a veterinarian.

Yes it is sad, but it is also very educational. I'm hoping to become a vet in the future and specialize in bone surgery and trama. You have to be able to take the sad parts and celebrate the good parts.

I have just decided to stop watching after seeing an rerun in which the vet killed (off-camera) a very sweet dog, who seemed to be a blue heeler, because a black family could not pay the bills --seemingly without even trying to raise donations in $ or skills. Yet in other cases, extensive efforts are made; for example, for a greyhound that needed very expensive surgery.

Whoever makes profits off of the show should have also been asked for donations, including the film crew, rather than making blood-money of off filming a poor family's grief.

I watched for another 15 min to see if a solution had been sought, but it seemed not and I was too disgusted to watch any more of the last 15 min --or any other program.

I know my vet office/hospital would have gone the extra mile for ANY dog.

E-vets can be sad at times but being at an emergency hospital/vet isn't always good. There was this one lady on E-vet interns(a spin off of E-vets) whose cat had been suffering from cancer and was unable to breathe properly. Well, the poor lady was histerical because the vet had her consider euthanizing her poor kitty cause it was suffering from the breathing. That brought tears to my eyes when I watched that episode. So yes, E-vets can be really sad at times but it's not always sad.
