The Vet Life season 5 episode 4, titled "Pardon My Frenchie," follows the professional and personal lives of Dr. Diarra Blue, Dr. Aubrey Ross and Dr. Michael Lavigne, who are three friends and co-workers at their veterinary clinic located in Houston, Texas.

Batman's owners are anxious as they fear that their beloved pet might need surgery. Dr. Blue takes charge of the case, hoping to save Batman's life and help him breathe normally.
Meanwhile, Dr. Ross is visited by a longtime client, who has a pet dog named Finn who needs care. Finn is a Shih Tzu whose gait has been compromised due to his weight. Dr. Ross works with the owner to come up with a balanced diet plan that will help Finn lose weight and regain his mobility.
