Julian Norton is called to help an elderly matriarchal alpaca, while Shona Searson's patient is a young male Shire horse called Dante, who needs surgery to calm him down. And Peter Wright's heart is melted by a nine-week old Cockapoo puppy with a deformed leg. Can he perform a successful operation to help him find a new home?

Martin Paterson from the Huddersfield animal hospital heads into war-torn Ukraine, travelling over 1000 miles in an ambulance loaded with medical supplies. And while he's briefly switched to helping people, he also visits a homeless animal shelter to see the effects the war is having on the country's pets. Back in Thirsk, Julian Norton's treating a rescue dog called Woody, who has a worrying tumour in a very delicate spot, which might make it tricky to remove. Peter Wright heads to visit his old farmer friend's sheep, who has a huge lump on her jaw. Matt Smith's patient at a local college is a duck with penis problems - and amputation might the only option.
