Show concept and information

Dr Dee: Alaska Vet is an American real-life television series airing on Animal Planet. The show focuses on Dr. Dee Thornell's veterinarian practice in the Animal House Veterinary Hospital in Fairbanks. The series, which debuted on November 7, 2015, consists of 8 one-hour episodes. The second season debuted on July 16, 2016.

Dr. Dee Thornell's hospital practice is often interrupted by an urgent need to fly out to a remote area on an emergency call. Alaskan veterinarian's patient roster definitely has an interesting edge to it – Dr. Dee regularly treats moose, bald eagles, bears, beavers, sled dogs and other creatures not typical for other areas of the country. Rescuing an injured horse on a helicopter and examining a black bear who's just woken up from winter hibernation and is unlikely to be in the best of moods are only a start, and who knows what might come next.

[sad] I have just watched a re run of Doctor Dee here in New Zealand. TV is basically [censored] down under, so many useless Yank 'reality' programmes. Doctor Dee Alaska Vet is an exception. Entertaining, informative and enjoyable. One hopes that those who are the decision makers bring back a new series.

I cannot in any way shape or form understand why Dr Dee's series was canceled! One of the best ones on television, it was funny, very informative and clean entertainment! You don't find that anywhere these days.. please bring it back!

From what it sounds like Alaska has better winter weather than my previous hometown of Chicago. I remember waiting for buses and freezing my butt off. The best is walking to my job on Lakeshore and the hail pelting me. If you were protected by a building you were okay, but as soon as you turned a corner.

Yes, please stop with River Monsters and Bigfoot. Dr. Dee is pure reality and more people have house pets then going up the river on a boat or searching the woods for Bigfoot. I wish they would also bring back Animal Cops. I love the Detroit one. This lady is one tough Michigan chick. My mother's mother was from Upper Michigan and she has the same accent my grandmother's relatives had.

[smile] Dr. Dee's show exemplifies how excellent women bring exceptional services to the world. What a role model!
This show is timeless and timely. Ask her if she will do another 2 seasons and show you're all about ANIMALS.

ANIMAL PLANET.....Live up to your name! Listen to the People! Bring back Dr. Dee. Dr. Dee is inspiring, a kind human being, not only a vet, but a pilot. She goes to the people that need help with their animals and she even trades with them.She is a wonderful example, not only of veterinarians, but a human. Please consider bringing her back not only for the humans that love to watch her but for the extra mile she goes to help the animals that desperately need her.

I cannot say anything more than those below have already expressed. Who knows why veterinarian shows lose out to monsters and ghosts. The number of people in the United States who have four-legged family members is worth having shows that teach about the importance of keeping your furry family members healthy.

I've been watching reruns of Dr. Dee, but nothing was new. Now I see why--the show was cancelled. Such a mistake by Animal Planet. I enjoyed Dr. Dee's humor, teaching style, and dedication to helping animals. She is a role model to aspiring women who want to be vets and own their own business. What are the producers thinking anyway? Correct your mistake and take Dr Dee back on.

That is what usually happens, you love a show and will be cancelled. Cann't believe she had lower ratings than the other vet shows.

I would agree: You love a show and then it's cancelled, or worse, you watch the first year of a series and then you have to subscribe to another online service to watch the remainder seasons. That was the case with the English show, Vera, when Amazon only allowed the viewer to watch one season and then had to rent BritBox for the rest. This is my last month with that evil, nasty corporation. Anyway, of all the vet shows this was my favorite.

:(((: Why in the world is animal planet showing finding bigfoot and river monsters. When Phil Robertson of duck dynasty has a big foot mounted on his wall then I will believe in them and if river monsters finds any more than a big catfish I would be surprised. Who are the stupid producers of this trash or the stupid executives of animal planet who authorized them Idiots

I have just started watching Dr Dee don't know how I missed it!
I was inspired and touched by such a strong, clever and brave woman. I fell in love with the show, the content was amazing. Nothing else like it anywhere on TV. Dr Dee has raised awareness about animal welfare, and educated me about tge animal world, a fascinating programme, with some strong characters. Please consider bringing it back. There is so little worth watching on a lot of channels, most are vacuous and downright insult our intelligence. Please don't dumb down with pointless empty programmes. Dr Dee has such a lot to offer us all.

I can’t believe you cancelled Dr. Dee’s show. A woman heading up a huge practice, flying a plane to reach remote areas, being of service, wonderful home with those crazy goats. Never gets old always something exciting to watch. She shows that girls do science and she was a body builder too. You have done a disservice to all.

Please bring back Dr.Dee. I really enjoyed her show. It is so interesting to see how she plain Alaska. Really love her personality. Loved hearing about her mom too.She is such a talented vet and so down to earth. I’m like these other people. How many tree houses can you see! Plus enough with the river monsters! I would watch your channel more if you would show more shows like Dr Dee and Dr Jeff.

I can't believe AP has cancelled Dr Dee, yet renew others such as Finding Bigfoot, River Monsters and its other siblings by different names, Tree Houses, aquarium shows and ad nauseam. One of your truly best shows showing such diversity of animals and locations in Alaska, a truly fantastic and accomplished Vet, fun, caring and professional. What your criteria is for such a bad decision and choice is beyond us. Bad decisions can be undone, and can show that there are still good, wise people behind them that care about the quality of programming, which, in the end, is what's lasting and enduring.
