Julian heads into surgery, hoping to give another anxious owner more precious time with her elderly dog. Meanwhile, the milkshakes bring the boys to the farmyard, as Matt and David sample some locally produced dairy products.

Peter Wright rushes to help a three-hour old donkey called Elvis whose life is in danger because he can't feed from his mum.
