Critter Fixers: Country Vets Season 4 Episode 2 Billy Goat Bluff

In episode 2 of season 4 of Critter Fixers: Country Vets, entitled "Billy Goat Bluff," Dr. Vernard Hodges and Dr. Terrence Ferguson experience a heartwarming and exciting day of treating a variety of animals with equally diverse ailments.

The episode begins with the doctors preparing for a house call to treat a mini-horse named Tucker who has been suffering from laminitis, a common and painful inflammation of the hoof. Despite nearly getting lost on the way to the farm, the doctors arrive and set to work on easing Tucker's pain. They ultimately decide that a special type of shoe to alleviate the pressure on Tucker's hoof will help him heal over time.

Later, the doctors encounter a rather curious case when they are called to treat two potbelly pigs named Bacon and Whiskey. The two pigs appeared to have gotten into a disagreement, resulting in Bacon getting himself stuck in a drainpipe. After coaxing the animals out of their muddy pen, the doctors quickly realize that Bacon's leg was injured in the incident. They assess Bacon's injury and determine that he would need surgery to re-align the bones in his leg. The procedure is risky, but after an all-day surgery, Bacon pulls through.

Next, Dr. Vernard returns to the clinic, where he treats a beagle named Leonidas who has been experiencing intense digestive issues. After a thorough examination, Dr. Vernard discovers that Leonidas has a cherry pit lodged in his intestines. The doctors work quickly to remove the pit before it ruptures Leonidas' intestines.

Throughout the episode, the doctors also treat a goat named Winston with a broken leg, two miniature horses with dental issues, and a pot-bellied pig with a cold. Each case is unique and challenges the doctors in different ways.

One of the most heartwarming moments in the episode comes when the doctors are called to help a family with their four orphaned kittens. The kittens were undernourished and in desperate need of care. The doctors provide them with the necessary treatments and care to nurse them back to health before finding them a permanent home.

Overall, episode 2 of season 4 of Critter Fixers: Country Vets, "Billy Goat Bluff," highlights the wide array of cases that Dr. Vernard Hodges and Dr. Terrence Ferguson encounter on a daily basis. From broken legs to cherry pits, the doctors navigate each case with compassion and expertise.
