Six ordinary school kids have been chosen from a thousand applicants to find out if they've got what it takes to be a vet. They all want to help injured animals and poorly pets.

But is he really ready to take part in urgent surgery? Also, the junior vets join the emergency response team at the races and help heal hurt hooves down on the vet school farm. Show less
