In The Incredible Dr. Pol season 10 episode 12, entitled "Paw & Order," viewers follow the daily work of Dr. Jan Pol, a veterinarian who operates on farm animals in rural Michigan. This particular episode centers around the case of a cow that has a cancerous growth on its eye, which Dr. Pol must remove while the animal is awake.
The episode starts with Dr. Pol visiting a farm that has requested his services. He meets with the farmer and his family to discuss the health of their cows. The farmer is worried about one of his cows, who has a growth on her eye that has been getting bigger over the past few weeks. Dr. Pol examines the cow and determines that the growth is cancerous. He tells the farmer that he will need to remove the growth, but since the cow is pregnant, the operation must be done while the cow is awake.
Dr. Pol and his team build a makeshift surgery room in the barn where the cow is kept. They use local anesthesia to numb the cow's eye and keep her calm during the operation. Dr. Pol carefully removes the cancerous growth from the cow's eye while his team watches closely. The operation is successful, and the cow is sent back to its barn to recover.
Later in the episode, Dr. Pol gets called to a farm where a horse has a deep cut on its leg. The horse's owner is worried about infection, so Dr. Pol brings his team and equipment to the farm to treat the wound. They clean the wound thoroughly and stitch it up, but the horse is left with a limp. Dr. Pol prescribes medication and instructs the owner to monitor the horse's progress.
Another case in "Paw & Order" involves a dog named Tank, who has an eye infection. Tank's owner brings him to Dr. Pol to help ease the dog's discomfort. Dr. Pol examines Tank and prescribes medication, which the owner must administer to Tank several times a day.
Throughout the episode, viewers get to see Dr. Pol and his team in action, saving the lives of animals and making sure that they are healthy and comfortable. Although the show may be hard to watch for those who are sensitive to animal surgery scenes, it is a must-watch for animal lovers and anyone interested in veterinary medicine. The show provides a unique perspective on animal health care in a rural setting and shows how hardworking and dedicated veterinary professionals can make a difference in the lives of animals and their owners.
