When I picked up Buffy from the veterinary clinic today the vet tech had
already brought Buffy out. We were sitting on a nice glider bench,
Buffy in her Sherpa bag on a nice comfy fleece liner under a shade
canopy waiting for them to bring me the medication.

Instead of the vet tech, the doctor came out. He pulled down his mask
to talk to me (we were socially distanced) and OMG! He looked like
Prince Harry! Ginger beard, cute face, blue eyes. Hmmmm. ;)

It's a funny thing because in years past when I had my little mutt dog
Sampson (who lived to be 19), he had several veteriarians who looked
like "celebrities". One looked like 'Judge Larry Joe' which was a
stupid 1990's USA reality type court tv show. Yet another of Sammy's
vets looked like actress Geena Davis circa 1980-something. LOL

One of Persia's vets looked like a young version of actor Rob Lowe.

Celebrity vet look-a-likes. Go figure.

None of our vets have looked like an actor but the one we had in the
Sweeper (RB) days was really good looking not in a suave way which I don't
like) and had a lovely Morgan car. his style was James Herriot. In the
book/tv series All Creatures great and small. I don't know if you had that
over there. He was also a really lovely vet. Does that count?

Ah yes, I've seen 'All Creatures Great and Small' on Masterpiece on PBS
(Public Broadcasting Station). Never read the book; I probably should
as I love to read. Of course it's nice to have a really lovely vet!
