## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Very Real and True to life, and death. A Country Vet telling as it is.
  

*by S***3 on Reviewed in the United States on March 10, 2017*

Dr Pol doesn't mess with words, he tells it as it is. Life is not fair, nor is it easy and being a large animal vet is hard work and requires difficult decisions. This is not like his show, instead it is an inside look to his thoughts and how he does his job.I enjoyed reading his blunt and realistic thoughts and ideas. Indeed there are some funny stories as well as some tough stories that hit close to home. I highly recommend this book, but caution the reader that this is real life and death country vet life. Don't expect a gentle and soft life, expect reality.

    Drl Pol At His Best
  

*by S***R on Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2016*

At first I was leary about getting this book. I love the show The Incredible Dr. Pol so much that I was worried that the book might be done by some ghost writer and I wouldn't like it. I just couldn't figure out how Dr. Pol would have time to write a book. I was greatly surprised. Read this book is like what I would imagine an evening with Dr Pol must be like. Him telling you all about his life as a vet. To me even though I don't know the Pol's it was like sitting down with an old friend. The book has great stories and commentary and I loved it. My only complaint is the book is too short. lol. If you watch the show, you won't be disappointed, if you don't watch the show, you won't be disappointed. I feel that most people will love this book.

    He seems like one of the family!
  

*by L***T on Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2014*

I watch The Incredible Dr. Pol show all the time, and I thought it would be interesting to read his story.  I learned lots of facts I didn't know about both small and large animals and watching the show helped to understand some of the animal conditions described in the book.  I learned some interesting facts like dogs have many more blood types than humans, and it is rare for cows to have twins. What I liked most about the book though, was not the stories about the animals, but the stories about Dr. Pol and his family.Learning about how Dr. Pol grew up during WWII in Europe was quite interesting.  He came here from the Netherlands and followed the American Dream. Dr. Pol came to America as an exchange student and stayed for a lifetime.  He got married, started his own business in his garage with his wife, and they've worked side by side ever since.  Now over 40 years later, he truly is living the American Dream. Many of his qualities remind me of my grandfather: Never be afraid of hard work, never give up, find a job you love; treat others as you want to be treated (even animals), stay grounded, and it's great to be young at heart.If you are interested in animals or if you like reading about hard working people who came to America and became a success story, this book is worth the read.
