I’m a fan of the show. For Kevin’s birthday he should give Kevin a neuter
Love the show! Seems to be a great guy and loves animals !! He’s my kind of guy ! Loved his dad back in the day. Great actor! Keep the show going. Love it !! Kiss Kevin for me.
I would go to Hawaii just to meet him. Been in loved with him from the first moment I saw him….❤❤❤❤❤❤
How does he get his truck from island to island.
Love the show he is a kind and. Gentle soul
Love the show, I also love the compassion he has for all the animals and people he meets, the world needs more like him. HOPE AND PRAY that the show is on air a long time.
And he should let Kevin ride in the cab, not in the back of the truck! That is SO dangerous and something I would not expect from a vet!
Just wondering why his 6 yr old male dog is not neutered! I thought all vets recommend this .
I would love to know if he has ever used or recommended radiation therapy on horses with arthritis.. here in Northern California at UC Davis they have used this.
The dog is tied in the back of the truck nothing dangerous about it.
Why hasn’t Kevin been neutered? This seems so irresponsible for a veterinarian!
I have a HUUUUGE crush on Dr. Buckeye Bottoms. Can someone tell me if he’s single? I sincerely doubt it, some lucky dame has surely swooped in by now…
What I like about Buckeye is that he has a great sense of humor. It goes a long way in life and demanding jobs. I know because I was a junior high school teacher for 32 years. I especially love his puns! That’s my specialty, too.
I also am wondering why Kevin has not been neutered. All vets agree this is best but here is Kevin as full male. What’s up
Wow! Buckeye I love you, Kevin and your show! You and Dr. Pol are the best hands down!!! When Buckeye and Kevin go island hopping for their patients, does Buckeye have a truck on each island that’s set up and ready to go on calls??? I remember that Scott Sims had his on plane and he could just load it a nd go. I was sad that he passed away and seemingly so suddenly. My condolences to all who knew him and worked with him, I know he is dearly missed.
How many Islands does Buckeye Service in a week? It must be be expensive to do that! Rock on Buckeye and Kevin! May you be blessed with glorious and continued success for many, many seasons!!!
Thanks for taking the time to read my comments!
Thank you for all you do. Love a compassionate man. You are a Hoot!!
Love Buckeye and Kevin. How is valcano affecting them? Such gorgeous landscape being obliterated so fast. Hope they are in a safe place!
Hay Bucleye Font stop what you do … It’s nice to see you do your thing no matter how your family can help your populatary… Doing things on your own thumbs up !…
Love the show! Love Kevin! Love Dr. Buckeye! He’s so sweet and cute! Love his sense of humor!
Great show. Love watching him and Dr Pol.
I happened to tune into this show. I immediately liked it very much. Anyone who loves animals and cares for them is great in my book. The scenery is gorgeous on the show…………………and I love Kevin. Can’t wait for more shows. I’m a huge fan
How does Dr Buckeye get his truck from island to island? Does he have two identical trucks?
Huge fan! Your love of animals shows in all that you do! I have to wonder how you deal with the naive people that own animals though! I’m an animal lover and a few times I’ve seen things I would have called people out on! ( the sheep coat comes to mind first)!! Also, I’m quite certain you have a truck on each island you go to?! Please keep up the awesome animal work you and Kevin 🙂 do! ( also, the camera crew, producers,boom men,etc.,) Thank-you all for an awesome show!
Dr Buckeye seems a compassionate and talented Vet with an innate love of all animals, It’s a joy to watch his show and hopefully it will be aired for a long time. God bless him.
Good job bro keep it up
I NOTICED THAT THE SHOW WAS NOT ON FOR THE NEXT TWO WEEKS. PLEASE DON’T TELL ME THAT THE SHOW HAS BEEN CANCELLED! I LOVE THE SHOW!
Is there going to be new episodes as I see they have not even been running past seasons. I love this show. Please say it has not been dropped.
Please bring back The Adventures of Dr. Buckeye to Ontario, CANADA channels! My husband and I REALLY like the show and miss it terribly!
BIG fans from London, Ontario, Canada
Hello, I Love the show!!!!!! Myself I ride horses!!!!! Open Jumpers !! My Horse is good at his job and!! Very honest!!!!!! Jumper classes have at least 12 fences. Plus a jump off!!! His show name is the The Cats Pajames. My dog names is Thomas Edison. My name is Katy.
On the back window of Buckeye’s truck it says “In Loving Memory of Samuel John Bottoms”. Who is Samuel and what relation is he to Buckeye?
From the looks of it he seems to have a very attractive girlfriend from California
Love your show!! Dr. BUCKEYE.come back on. Love Hawaii.
I absolutely love this show and Dr. Buckeye’s personality. He seems to be quite a character and makes me laugh. Such a dedicated vet.
From Toronto, Ontario
Love love this show!!! What an amazing man! His passion for what he does takes my breath away! I am an animal lover of all kinds and to watch Dr Buckeye in action is incredible. KEVIN is amazing too
I am from Beautiful Vancouver Canada
I liked how you came up here to Vet school then back down to California. I used to live in San Diego & back home for sometime now in beautiful Vancouver Sad how California is going up…smoke!!! Keep up the great work you do the animals thank you Dr. BUCKEYE. Oh I love to play you a game of backgammon!
I think he is very funny. I’m divorsed. I have worked in a pet store for almost 10 years. I loved it. If you ever want to get away, you can stay with me for free. Bring kevin with you, i like animals.
I love the show and Wish they would have more recent episodes… Hope all is well with Dr. Buckeye and hope to see him on Nat Geo Wild again…
This is one fascinating program. There are a number of veterinarian programs. It is wonderful to see a actual “house call” vet at last! Myself and others are really hoping that you will continue to produce this program. I really enjoy it and Dr. B.B.Bottoms is a wonderful person. So very good with our “little animal brothers and sisters!!! THANKS!!!!
We love his show. I had horses all my life as my parents raised them. We have had so many animals so we have a good idea of the work of vets. Several friends were veterinarians. Buckeyes practice and general approach is not only appealing but very real. He is intuitive and imparts knowledge as he works. We feel he’s definitely a wonderful replacement for the previous vet who sadly passed away. We had also watched and thoroughly enjoyed his show. We are from Ontario Canada.
I agree with most of the other comments, including that the show is great, Buckeye is dedicated and excellent with the animals and their owners, and that Kevin is one heck of a dog. What I like best though is learning about the many medical issues a variety of animals have, and how they are diagnosed and treated. This may also help home viewer animal owners maintain better health with their animals, heading off health problems, and seeing the vet sooner when there is a problem starting. I’m most impressed with the doctor’s work ethic, he appears to be all business when it comes tp patient care. He also handles many really tough tasks on the job, often commenting that something done during a given visit was really tough (e.g. goat wrangling, etc.), appropriately saying “somebody has to do it” (I love that one). I too wonder if he has a pick-up truck on both kauai and Maui islands, though note that although both trucks are white, one is a Chevy and the other a GMC; identical trucks with the only difference being badging.
I was wondering about Kevin he looks exactly like Bully Deponte’s dog he used to have named Kanaio. I couldn’t believe how much he looks like him
My son and Daughter in-law live on Maui, I told them to call and get him to do “Hans’s” next checkup so I can see them on tv …
Great show…keep them coming
I will be in koloa in july. Would like to meet buckeye if possible. Love his dog and show.
