12 Days of Christmas for Help the AnimalsFestive edition of the documentary inspired by the classic Christmas song, beginning as vets Julian Norton and Peter Wright encounter 12 huskies, followed by 11 braying donkeys and so on. The countdown of patients also includes feisty ferrets, running reindeer and ends, of course, with a poorly partridge - although whether it is in a pear tree remains to be seen.
