77-year-old veterinarian still enjoys job
By Diana Bowley
Staff Writer Bangor Daily News
DOVER-FOXCROFT - Leaning comfortably against a counter on a recent day, Dr. Harold Sherman greeted a woman who tugged a reluctant large black dog behind her into his small examination room.
"What’s happening?" Sherman, 77, asked as the woman closed the door behind her dog.
When the woman explained her dog Nova was having trouble with her left ear, Sherman glanced at his "right-hand" assistant Susan Page of Dexter and said, "Let’s get her on the table."
Sherman then grabbed the dog’s right ear to peer inside and quickly discovered that Nova wanted none of it. Bucking, the rowdy dog whacked his head against Sherman’s, and the dog’s toenail sliced Sherman’s arm, drawing blood.
"See how much fun we have?" Sherman remarked to this reporter, before two assistants held the dog down and muzzled her while Sherman gave the animal a mild sedative.
