This series follows vets across Scotland as they tend to small, large and very wild animals.

Vet Scott Rigg has the challenge of operating on one of the largest breeds of dog, Midas the Boerboel who weighs 64 kilograms. And his next patient for surgery is Poppy, who is one of the tiniest breeds of dog - a dachshund.

At Highland Wildlife Park, vet Jane Harley is kept on her toes with the lively markhors as they get their regular hoof trim, and she observes horse trainer Bonnie Mealand as she works with the wild Przewalski horses.

And in Stornoway, vet Micheal Brannigan has been called to a cow that needs urgent treatment in Harris, but he has to overcome the challenge of travelling by road over a snowy Clisham - the highest mountain in the Western Isles. Show less
