Season 19

The nation’s favourite vet returns with more cutting-edge care. In this rescue special, we meet abandoned kitten Pretzel and catch up with Wobble the whippet.

Noel treats Border terrier puppy Keira, and we look back at springer spaniel puppy Poppy.

Noel treats Boston terrier Rogan’s debilitating dysplasia and creates an implant for Hungarian vizsla Brodie. And Vinnie the tabby cat has been hit by a car.

Marbella-based French Bulldog Milo is flown in by private jet to get his broken elbow fixed, and Maine Coon-mad Noel helps Digby, who has severe hip dysplasia.

Toy poodle Monty was jumped on by a larger dog, damaging his hip joint. Monty is so small that very few surgeons can perform a complex total hip replacement on such a miniature scale, so the family are hoping that Noel can help. Another two-year-old, 75kg Caucasian shepherd dog Odin, has a condition where malformed vertebrae in his neck are putting pressure on his spinal cord, causing pain and impairing the nerve signals to his back legs.
