Veterinarian Tao You You once had a dream: She wanted to study to become a medic who could treat humans. Instead, she has had to settle for a career healing animals – following in the footsteps of her father. She still thinks she can make a change, however – and thinks that studying abroad might help her make a career change. But fate has other plans for her – with a family situation forcing her to take charge of the Taotao Veterinary Clinic, her father’s business. Worse still, the clinic has fallen on hard times and could soon go bankrupt. Destiny intervenes once again, however: She crosses paths with Ke Mi, the president of the Luchuan Group veterinary pharmaceuticals firm. Over time, they strike up a secret business partnership. Will this venture lead them on the path to love? (Source: Viki) Edit Translation

Look at all the cute pets . . keep looking . .

You know the old saying about kicking a puppy? Yes, that’s you if you don't like this show because it really piles on the cute pets and eulogise on and on about keeping them responsibly.

Essentially, this show is a collection of many pet related vignettes which are loosely linked together within the pet hospital setting. The problem is that the A-plot regarding the ML’s identity is meh. By the half way mark, everything is known to us. It becomes rather tedious to watch the rest of the ensemble stumble onto the truth many hours later.

The show could have benefited from an intense love line, but we ended up with a slow burn. The OTP is preordained but their chemistry is only passable. The show ran through the usual gambit of dating tropes, but nothing works. We watch the OTP dancing the Two-Step with each other for 30eps before something finally happens. This is not helped by the endless shenanigans cooked up by the SM/FL to try to sabotage them. The second leads just won't take NO for an answer. This is particularly true for the SFL. She took puppy love to infinity and beyond! It tests credulity and my patience. Regardless, their meagre efforts are transparent and ineffective.

All that changes towards the end of the run when the melodrama dial is turned up to the MAX. We are hit with a wave of tropes which viewers of typical family sagas will recognise at 100 paces. Luckily, the writer took pity on us and spare us a prolonged torture session. By the time normal programming resumes, the show has run out of puff and we stumbled over the finish line while singing Kumbaya. I barely noticed the herd of unicorns waiting for their checkups by our resident vets.

Acting is workmanlike on the whole. The script is not particularly kind to the FL with her behaving like a hapless and naïve girl for way too long. On the other hand, the ML is the hive mind and he is always ready with a “I told you so”. While he is handsome and charismatic, he can look bored and feels flat at times. The large ensemble cast did their job to move the plot along, mostly in the right direction.

In the end, the show is harmless and watchable but there is not a lot there to lift it above pass grade. The script is a millpond with the odd splash. Your mind will drift and want to hit the FF button. Unless you are a pet lover then there are plenty of dopamine hits. One time watch for me.

P.S. What's with the ML's hair? Does it need a session with Tian Yu Xian?

Extremely frustrating Series ლ(ಠ益ಠლ even for ZTao's fans !

1/ The storyline is stupid and full of nonsense!
- the attitude of owners with their dogs: “to show my attention, I will wash you every day”, purebred Malinois babies are abandoned in China??, etc.
- the FL's behavior is irrational/idiotic: you don't have to be intelligent to study in China's veterinary school ? She's just naive, "everyone is nice" type of girl, has no management skills but won't admit it, ... and is super aggressive towards her investor. Seriously ?? The FL only makes peace with the ML (who's saving her clinic) from episode 6 on.
- The screenwriter and the director have probably never had animals and have never set foot in a veterinary clinic, given the number of Bull**its ideas there are in the drama.

2/ The dialogues are flat, full of clichés...
3/ Employees are all caricatures.
4/ The break-up with the FL and the marriage (interrupted at the last minute) with FL2 are nonsense (not counting Sheng Mi's secret, an aberration, resolved as if it were a normal thing...)

- Z TAO: I have been a fan of his for a long time, but why did he agree to appear in this drama??? Probably because he loves dogs (he has one, adorable). That being said, you should still read the script!! (๑•ิཬ•ั๑)
Moreover, I know that ZTao likes this type of hairstyle, but the volume is too much (does he want to keep a beehive on the head or something ?)

=> It's really hard to get hooked on this series 〣( ºΔº )〣
=> I wanted to go untill the end in FF and with a lot of skipping, but I suffered!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Regardé pour Ztao et un magnifique samoyède :) Mais cette série est extrêmement frustrante ლ(ಠ益ಠლ

1/ La storyline est idiote et pleine de non-sens !
- l'attitude de maitres avec leur chien : "pour montrer mon attention, je vais te laver tous les jours", les bébés malinois pure race sont abandonnés en Chine ??, etc.
- le comportement de la FL est irrationnel /idiot : il ne faut pas être intelligent pour faire l'école vétérinaire en Chine ? Elle est juste naïve, "tout le monde est gentil", n'a aucune compétence de gestion mais ne l'admet pas, ... et super agressive vis à vis de son investisseur. Sérieux ??
2/ Les dialogues sont d'une platitude, bourrés de clichés...
3/ Les salariés sont des caricatures.
4/ Le screenwriter et le réalisateur n'ont sans doute jamais eu d'animaux et n'ont jamais mis les pieds dans une clinique vétérinaire, vu le nombre de Bull**it qu'il y a dans ce drama.

=> Dur d'accrocher à cette série 〣( ºΔº )〣

+ ils ne font la paix qu'à partir de l'épisode 6
- le break-up et le mariage (interrompu à la dernière minute) avec la FL2 sont des non-sens (sans compter le secret de Sheng Mi, aberration, résolu comme si c'était chose normale...)

-Z TAO : Je suis une de ses fans depuis longtemps, mais pourquoi a-t-il accepté de tourner dans ce drama ??? Parce qu'il aime les chiens ( il en a un, adorable) mais il faut quand même regarder le script !! (๑•ิཬ•ั๑)
De plus, je sais que ZTao aime ce type de coiffure, mais le gonflant est too much (il veut se recycler dans la choucroute ?)

=> J'ai voulu aller au bout en FF et avec beaucoup de zapping, mais j'ai souffert !
