[00:51.49]Where does an animal doctor work?
[01:53.66]James Herriot was¹ a famous³ doctor for animals.
[01:59.54]He was born⁴ in Scotland⁵ in 1915.He grew up with a pet dog named Don.
[02:25.29]Wherever he went,Don went with him.
[03:06.25]They would⁶ often into the mountains.
[03:10.69]After Herriot graduated⁷ from high school,
[03:15.76]he made⁸ up his mind⁹ to be a vet¹⁰,especially for dogs.
[04:32.82]He went to college,but soon found¹¹ out that to be a vet just for dogs
[04:41.39]was impossible¹² during¹³ that time.
[05:14.15]Mostly,vets¹⁴ helped horses,cows,sheep and pigs.
[05:49.52]As² he loved animals,he continued¹⁵ his education¹⁶.
[05:57.88]After he graduated,he found a job in Yorkshire,England.
[06:29.15]It was a beautiful part¹⁷ of England.
[06:45.63]Herriot loved the beautiful countryside¹⁸,
[06:50.36]but treating¹⁹ large animals was very hard work.
[07:28.21]Before long,Herriot noticed²⁰ that people in the country also had²¹ dogs as pets.
[07:58.28]They were never treated²²
[08:03.74]when they became²³ sick because the vets wouldn't heal²⁴ them.
[08:43.28]Herriot started treating the dogs.
[09:11.55]At first other vets laughed at him,because he wasn't working on "real"animals.
[10:13.12]However,the owners²⁵ of the dogs were very glad that Herriot would help their pets.
[10:41.57]They regarded²⁶ their pets an members of their families.
[11:11.22]Herriot knew exactly²⁷ how they felt
[11:15.66]when they saw²⁸ their sick dogs become well agani.
[11:58.42]He himself²⁹ kept two dogs,Hector and Dan.
[12:07.20]They would go with him in his car every day
[12:11.95]as he went to the farms to heal sick animals.
[12:59.10]Later in his life³⁰,
[13:03.96]James Herriot wrote³¹ a lot about his experience³²
[13:09.84]as a country vet in Yorkshire,England.
[13:16.00]He wrote ten books,all about animals,He even³³ wrote a book,just about dogs,
