Yes! I read this just Tuesday when I was waiting for my car to be repaired at the mechanics. It was great! He seemed to really, really love animals.....My vet is like that.....My nephew dog, Bear, had cancer that had come on really quickly, and he was staying overnight at the vet's because he was on IV treatment. Well, he died around 3:00 in the morning, and Dr. Pipes was there with him when he passed. Not a lot of vets would be up there all night.......
