1. New Series : Pet Surgeons Dealing with the different personalities of pets.... and their owners

2. Our pets and animals guard us, guide us and give us unconditional love and so when things go wrong, owners are prepared to do whatever they can to help them. The Pet Surgeons is a brand-new RTÉ series that tells the emotionally charged stories of worried pet owners, sick animals and the dedicated vets who will go to any length to make them better. At Gilabbey Veterinary Hospital in Cork, every day presents a new challenge for the team of Vets, Nurses, Radiologists and of course the pets themselves. With Vet Shane Guerin at the helm, The Pet Surgeons investigate, diagnose, operate and rehabilitate a wealth of animals from tiny kittens to bearded dragons and everything in between. In this engaging series the makers of ‘Vets on Call’ - go behind the scenes and see how the Vets handle emergency road traffic accidents, use state of the art veterinary technology to perform complicated operations and implement the latest chemotherapy treatments. Dealing with the different personalities of the pets.... and their owners - is all in a day's work at this busy hospital. The Pet Surgeons mixes the lighter side of having a pet with the sadness of knowing nothing more that can be done.. 254,000 Average Adult Viewership for this slot Sponsorship Opportunity
