Julian is called out to a suspected case of foot-and-mouth. Other patients include a Great Dane with cancer, a ram that needs castrating, a rat with a suspicious lump and a rare breed of pig that needs inseminating.

Julian is woken by an emergency call in the middle of the night, Moobaloo the heifer has been struggling in labour but there is no sign of the calf. And tiny Teeny, a seven-day-old Shetland foal, is rushed in to see vet Helen.
