Keira

Summary

The nation’s favourite vet, Professor Noel Fitzpatrick returns for this sixteenth series with a Supervet Special ‘Saving My Dog’ in one of the most emotional and heart-rending stories ever filmed for the show: the story of Noel’s dog, Keira.

It’s been fifteen years since Noel began expanding the boundaries of veterinary medicine at his practice in Surrey, and his soulmate, the inimitable ‘ball of furry joy’, Border terrier Keira (now thirteen) has been by his side all the way.

The programme follows every intense, fraught and dramatic step of Keira’s battle for life, from just after the accident through each emotional stage of her treatment as a distraught Noel and his team jump into action and stabilise her life-threatening injuries.

The Supervet Special Saving My Dog airs on Thursday 27th May 2021 at 8pm on Channel 4.

On one dark night last September, Noel’s life was turned upside down when, by a terrible quirk of fate; Keira was hit by a van right outside the practice. Suddenly, the surgeon renowned for finding solutions for even the most challenging injuries must face the possibility that his Keira may not be fixable – and furthermore, steel himself for the most important surgery of his life.
