This series follows vets across Scotland as they tend to small, large and very wild animals. In this programme, Wick vet Ian Miller has to give a pedicure to Mannie the bull before the mating season begins, but how do you handle a bull that weighs over a tonne? Fortunately, Ian has just the tools to help him - a hydraulic crate on a trailer and an electric grinder.

At the Vets Now emergency service near Aberdeen, Brodie the Cockapoo has eaten something he shouldn't, but they don't know what. Vet David Mackenzie takes an X-ray and finds something that puts Brodie's life in danger.

And, a goose has been admitted to the Wildlife Rescue Centre with breathing problems. Vet Romain Pizzi has to make a tiny hole in its chest so that he can insert a camera on the end of an endoscope to find out the cause, leaving him with a difficult decision to make.
