Veterinary surgeon Dr. James Greenwood had to take to Twitter to blast a stranger who called his partially blind Labrador Oliver “f’ing ugly” while they were outside.

Dr. James, who also regularly appears on BBC Radio and other TV programs, defended his “beautiful boy” and blasted the stranger for being such a “doughnut.”

Oliver clearly doesn’t want for love when his dad is so quick to defend him.

There’s also a heartbreaking reason for why he’s missing an eye.

Dr. James shared that he met Oliver when he was working in equine practice.

The vet student that was shadowing him had a Labrador who has just given birth to a litter of puppies. All of the puppies had been sold except for one.

“This one puppy had suffered an unprovoked attack at the mercy of an adult Labrador. This Labrador fractured Oliver’s skull and in the process caused his eye to prolapse,” Dr. James shared. “He was only six weeks old, at 11 weeks old we went to visit and decided this one-eyed puppy was the one for us!”

Dr. James condemned the rude stranger’s behavior, tweeting, “My beautiful boy got called ‘f’ing ugly’ in the street today by some prat passing by with his mates. Humans are weird.”

My beautiful boy got called ‘f’ing ugly’ in the street today by some prat passing by with his mates. Humans are weird. He’s a dog mate. Therefore can’t answer back. He’s not ugly. But you just definitely made yourself look properly stupid. Complete doughnut. Jog on. pic.twitter.com/8BkjTZHGyN— Dr James Greenwood (@drjgreenwood) January 9, 2022

“He’s a dog mate. Therefore can’t answer back. He’s not ugly,” he continued. “But you just definitely made yourself look properly stupid. Complete doughnut. Jog on.”

Hundreds of people wrote comments to tell Oliver he is indeed beautiful, while some pet parents also shared photos of their beloved pets who similarly had one eye.

“It’s so sad to think that someone can tell a word like “ugly” to a dog or even to a human,” one comment read. “Every animal and special animals are the most beautiful in the world.”
