| Anyone watch it pretty regularly? I recorded it several weeks ago and I'm finally finding time to watch it. Some of its interesting, funny and then kind of weird! I enjoy watching it though! It was pretty cool to learn about the hyperbaric chamber. I could do without some of partying scenes and the tattoos but for the most part I think I'll keep watching |

          Location: 31 lengths farms | Not a fan frankly...I have to ask myself "would I want a vet who had been out partying and drinking to the wee hours injecting my horses hocks with no x-rays?" or heck, even with x-rays... |

Same here, I want my Vets to be sober and clear headed, not impressed with all the partying that they do on that show, I watched a few times not something Im into. |

| Yes! I saw an episode where he was out at a bar and got a call in to perform emergency surgery on a colic. They said they gave him coffee on the way in so he was "ok". I agree with ya'll on the drinking thing... if you're going to go out drinking and gallivanting around make sure you are not the only vet on call!

I think he thinks hes quite the lady's man lol! ... That bar where he took his underage son, slipped the door man $100 to let his boy in... that could potentially be a huge problem for that establishment! That whole thing was in poor taste in my opinion. I wish theyd stick with the veterinary stuff, surgeries and such, now that I like to watch. |

Defense Attorney for The Horse
   Location: Claremore, OK | I don’t even know if he’s doing the series anymore. A couple years ago I went to a vet conference where he was going to give a talk on tendon injuries. I thought he’d be a snobby no it all vet but nothing could be further from the truth. He was there early, introduced himself and started a conversation with my husband and mI . He was down to earth and engaging but high energy. I learned more about tendon injuries from him than I’d learned from anyone in the last ten years. |

I never got the impression he was snobby, always seemed really approachable on the series. I liked seeing the cutting trainers that I've read about and watched at the big shows talk about their experiences with him. |

That's cool to know, ,maybe its just one of those instances where the show puts the image on for ratings but I watch shows like that for information, not entertainment... |

The ones I recorded were from 15 or 16. Like someone else said, I'm not sure they're doing it anymore. |

        Location: Idaho | I actually have been on the show, I got interviewed after Dr. Ray scoped our horse at a race in Montana. He is a lot different off the camera... we saw him all weekend and I thought he was a different person, but they also filmed the show a ton at the race we were at. I thought the scoping price was very reasonable and they didn't rush it. Afterwards they asked if they can interview my mom and I and we agreed for fun, why not. We made the show, but I haven't seen the episode. |

| I watched a couple episodes, thought they were hilarious! Dr. Ray is one of the most kind hearted, down to earth vets I have ever been to! We are so lucky in this area to have him up here!!! I actually wish he was closer to me that what he is! He is honestly one of the niecest vets I have ever met in my life! I had kind of forgot about the show actually, I might go watch a couple more episodes and laugh about it...... he was the one that told me about it too....... Great guy.... if you get a chance to take your horse to him or meet him.... you definately should!! |

I haven't had DirecTv or Dish since then so that explains it. Lol |
