NBC show "Animal Practice" Poll--vote

I never watched the series (I was uncomfortable watching a show in which a monkey is a main character; probably the same reason why I avoided watching Friends), but judging from the reaction of some people, I guess it's a good thing the show was cancelled. But I'm guessing it could have been so much better; a chance to show audiences what it's really like being a vet, blah blah blah. Were there any pro-animal story lines on this show? Or was it really all about the humans, and who cares about the animals? (just like the HBO series Luck)
 
Monkey actors have very short careers and long, miserable lives.
