Watch Vet Detective

Desperation hits close to home when 13-year-old Mr. Bentley, a world-traveling bulldog, is increasingly struggling to breathe. It's a potentially life-threatening condition, and his age makes surgical treatment risky. When a new, minimally invasive procedure becomes his only hope, Dr. Lauren must decide if an untested solution is worth the risk. Meanwhile, 3-year-old Timber's massively swollen leg has stumped every vet he's seen, leaving his loving owner with the grim last resort of amputation unless Lauren can crack the case. Lauren refuses to give up on Hudson, a 10-year-old Lab with a shocking cancer diagnosis, and undertakes an arduous search to uncover the truth in an attempt to save his life.

Socks, a beloved family dog, suffers from a relentless fever no vet can explain. Dr. Lauren uncovers a hidden pattern that could point to a dangerous liver condition, but getting a diagnosis means gambling on an invasive surgical procedure. Milo, a young doodle with violent GI flare-ups, has exhausted every standard treatment, forcing Dr. Lauren to think outside the box and attempt a bold and surprising therapy untested in veterinary medicine. When a senior dog named Luna appears to have life-threatening cancer, a shocking twist deepens the real mystery behind her failing health.

When Bruce Wayne, a 5-year-old pit bull with a superhero name and a gentle heart, arrives at the hospital, his chart looks normal, but his devoted owner knows something is deeply wrong. Negative test after negative test, Dr. Lauren is forced to keep digging to uncover the mysterious cause of his rapid and life-threatening muscle loss. Meanwhile, a young Cavapoo arrives at the hospital with sudden and unexplained blood loss. A blood transfusion might buy some time, but Dr. Lauren is in a race against the clock to solve the deadly mystery. At the same time, a beloved rescue is suffering from a mysterious mass in her chest but diagnosing it might kill her.

Dr. Lauren's former patient, Dasha, returns with alarming seizures.

Mitzie is a medical riddle on borrowed time, and Dr. Lauren must dig through layers of history to find the cause. As the last cat left at the shelter, her adopter, Dorothy, quickly learned why: Mitzie's mysteriously incontinent, has a BB pellet lodged in her skull, and is now spiraling into life-threatening antibiotic resistance. Meanwhile, young puppy Amos arrives critically ill with baffling symptoms no test can explain — a puzzle with no trail of clues. And when a doodle named Rosie swallows a pair of underwear, what should be a simple endoscopy turns into a high-stakes rescue mission.

Dasha, a young French bulldog, is wasting away from a baffling condition that's left her unable to poop, and no one knows why. Dr. Lauren follows a trail of dead ends and elusive clues, risking a high-stakes endoscopic procedure in a desperate attempt to keep Dasha alive. Then comes Ellie, a Burmese cat with a symptom Dr. Lauren has never seen before. She coughs only when she purrs, a mystery that turns critical when she suddenly stops breathing mid-procedure. And finally, a mischievous Tonkinese named Yeti swallows a piece of plastic that vanishes inside him like evidence gone cold, forcing an urgent search-and-retrieve before it slips deeper and triggers a surgical crisis.
