Animal Planet adds to its staple of Colorado-based veterinary shows with one that follows the Henderson family practice in Lakewood. The Fox Hollow Animal Hospital was founded by Dr. Tony Henderson in 1996. It now includes Tony's sons Dr. Ross and Dr. Ryan and technician assistant Cole, plus the extended clinic family and numerous pets, including Tony's beloved golden retriever and sidekick, Lord Barrington. Drama and high stakes at the clinic with animals are part of the daily routine for this dynamic family, but so are jokes, laughter and love.

One of the largest and most popular zoos in the U.S., Ohio's renowned Columbus Zoo and Aquarium and its conservation park The Wilds, houses more than 10,000 animals on 12,000 acres. It's also the part-time home of beloved wildlife guru Jack Hanna, the zoo's director emeritus. Now, Nat Geo Wild is taking viewers inside the grounds and allowing them to experience what visitors can't: compelling, heartwarming stories, and behind-the-scenes moments and adventures. "Secrets of the Zoo" introduces both the animals and the legions of workers who create unforgettable connections between people and wildlife.

Making a lucrative living certainly isn't a motivating factor for wildlife caregivers. It's a profession that appeals to those with a strong will, a big heart, and a love of wild animals. In rural western Kentucky, the dedicated individuals featured in "Wild Bandits" rescue, rehabilitate and release injured, sick, and orphaned wild animals. State-licensed volunteers like Kristin Allen, who works for the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife, answer emergency calls day and night, and coordinate with other rehabbers to provide the best care for each species. Despite the constant sacrifice of time, money and sleep, these caregivers make sure the animals come first -- with the ultimate goal of one day returning them back to the wild.

In the varied forms of veterinary medicine, Dr. Susan Kelleher's practice may be one of the more unusual. Known as Dr. K, she runs South Florida's Broward Avian and Exotics Animal Hospital, and this series follows the staff as it cares for rabbits, ferrets, foxes, fish, birds, reptiles, marsupials, and even primates. As do some other vets, Kelleher thinks domesticating wild animals like monkeys is a bad idea, but that feeling doesn't interfere with her taking care of them: "If it will fit through the door, I'll treat it," she says.

Thinking of adopting a dog, or just love cute puppies? "Puppy Days" tells all about the roller-coaster experience of raising young canines by showing the successes and mistakes of pet parents. Embedded with six first-time owners who have decided to dramatically alter their family dynamic, the series begins at the moment the pups arrive, then tracks the early stages as dog and family adapt to each other. A puppy learns quickly during its early infancy, but by 18 weeks its ability to accept and learn new things reduces dramatically. The families have just over two months to train their puppies the right way or face the consequences. Included are do's and don'ts of teaching pups how to sleep through the night, behave for vet visits, socialize with other dogs and more.
