This series follows vets across Scotland as they tend to small, large and very wild animals. In this programme, vet Kay Falconer has been called out to check on cattle at both ends of the Long Island. Crofter Angus MacKay from Scaristavore in Harris has bought new Aberdeen Angus stock that need testing, while crofter and journalist Murray Macleod from Ness in Lewis wants to find out if his cattle are in calf.

At Blair Drummond Safari Park, vet Colin Scott is doing his rounds and has a mix of animals to tend to, from tigers and sea lions to a giraffe.

And a very special dog has returned to Aberdeen Veterinary Referral. Two-year-old wirehaired pointer Dillon is a quadruple amputee having lost all four legs in terrible conditions overseas. Vet Scott Rigg has arranged for special prosthetic legs to be made especially for him and Dillon is going to try them out for the first time.
