FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE - January 12, 2004 2004-01-04-WCVM
"Campus Vets" premieres Monday, January 12, 2004 on Life Network
featuring U of S students, staff and faculty!
Life Network looks at Canada's young veterinarians in training at U of S
From the working ranch to the adrenalin of a high-tech ER, Campus Vets
captures moments when animals, owners and veterinarians are bound together
in a race against time. Beginning Monday, January 12 at 8:30 p.m. (CST),
witness Canada's young vets in training as they pursue the demanding career
of saving injured and sick animals.
This 13-part series (airing Monday evenings) follows the stories of students
on the most modern and competitive veterinary college in North America, the
WESTERN COLLEGE OF VETERINARY MEDICINE at the University of Saskatchewan.
From dogs and horses to a hairless albino rat and an arctic musk ox, Campus
Vets features a diverse range of needy animals.
Each half-hour episode documents the emotionally challenging, physically
demanding, and occasionally hilarious situations faced by the aspiring
veterinarians. Some of the challenging scenarios they tackle include
performing risky brain surgery on a dog suffering from seizures, removing 20
feet of intestine to save a colicky horse, and dealing with a frisky puppy
who has swallowed his owner's underwear.
