I watch Doctor Pol every night and love how each of the cast members take pride and care so deeply for each of the animals. All of the regular cast members Brenda, Emily and even Charles. I really do love this show.
Thank you,
Would he take questions from viewers?
Love the show!! Every time it is on we watch even the reruns you learn a lot about different animals.
Never knew where you came from until I read your Bio. I was also born in the Netherlands (Wastena, Friesland) on my grandparents dairy farm) on 15 Sept 1943. Plus I lived in the Hastings, Mich area until 2008. Wonder if you ever had the opportunity to visit that area. I have never been back and wish I had.
I love watching his show. I was raised on a dairy farm as well. The things they deal with on these dairy farms have jogged my memory and I see certain things that I thought I wouldn’t ever forget. I love, love, love his show!!
Although I don’t like blood, I enjoy watching Dr. Pol, Dr. Brenda and Dr. Emily. They all care for the animals they
treat and it clearly shows.
Jeanne K. I enjoy watching Dr. Poll whenever it is on. However, it seems his shows are less and less. Dr. Pol has been replaced by 2 other vets; but they are not as good as he is. Is the house that hey show on tv his real house or just a set? Anyway, I do love to watch him and his assistant vets are great.
Hallo Dr pol. I have always admired your show. Your love and service to animals is great. Having been brought up by a small scale dairy farmer along the slope’s of Mt Kenya, I have learnt a lot from you that I am practicing in my small way. I’d long to spend at least a day and enjoy what you people do,but a poor Kenyan who cannot afford a visit to Michigan. When you shall visit our beautiful country for holiday pls let me know. It shall be a great opportunity shaking your magical hand. Live long sir.
