Piggin' In The Rain

While the weather in Michigan may be inconsistent, the hard work of Dr. Pol and his team of vets at PVS is anything but. It may be a rainy and miserable Monday, but whenever and wherever an animal is in need, the staff at Pol Vet is there to help. Dr. Pol and Charles are off to castrate a pair of testy bulls. Several failed attempts to corral the bulls leave them increasingly agitated and it becomes apparent that they'll need to be tranquilized first. With a little stealth and some old school rope techniques, Dr. Pol manages to inject and subdue the thousand pound bulls for a safe and easy procedure. At the clinic, Dr. Emily takes a look at a drove of pigs in the parking lot that are coughing with high fevers. Suspecting respiratory infection, Dr. Emily wants to take a fecal sample to check for anything she might be overlooking. When the slide is clear, Dr. Emily is happy to report that the pigs' treatments today will end with antibiotics and instructions to quarantine until they get better. Dr. Brenda heads over to Rooftop Landing Reindeer Farm to inspect a newborn reindeer. This little bundle is having a difficult time standing-something she should have been able to do hours ago. Without enough milk from mom, Dr. Brenda needs to act quickly to save this adorable reindeer in time. Once the weather has perked up, Dr. Pol and Diane take a little trip to Holland… Michigan. Reminiscent of Dr. Pol's home country where the two once lived together, Jan and Diane enjoy the beautiful day holding hands and laughing over the bright tulips.
