I was hoping to post about our vet today, but decided to talk about other amazing people around Asia as well.
MSB, DVM
Two days ago, we went to our vet to have Buchi's semi-monthly Ivermectin shot. Just in case anybody was wondering, Ivermectin is a broad spectrum anti-parisitic drug. In Buchi's case, it keeps the itchies at bay because of his immuno-compromised body.

| Off to the vet we go! Again! |
So while I was talking to Dr. M about Buchi's regimen, she mentions how lucky Buchi is. If he had ended up with other owners, they would have probably left him to deal with the itchies and infection without medical attention. She didn't say much, but she made me feel like a special owner. This was far from what I had felt with Dr. C who made me feel stupid and ignorant.

And it's not often you find a vet who understands that some of us are simply doing our best to provide the necessary medical attention with the limited budget we have. She's been generous and patient with us in many ways.
Bottom line? We think our vet, Dr. MSB, is definitely SMEXY!
Nitin Rana
We just found out about Nitin Rana in Facebook today. He has a thing for helping stray dogs and dogs in need in India.

Sure, I personally think he's cute, but the dogs think he's SMEXY.

In fact, their goodwill hasn't come unnoticed. They have been awarded BVNA Charity of the Year 2014, JustGiving charity of the Year 2013, and Animal Transportation Association Charity of the Year 2013

So glad you have found a good vet who appreciates what you do for your dogs and will talk to you about them . Great to hear of all the good work being done by those kind peeps too - sometimes it seems we only hear about the horrible people and not those who do good work for animals. Hope Buchi is doing OK - woofs and licks
