Their clinics are dusty spaces with limited electricity and no running water. Their operating tables are wooden desks covered in garbage bags. Most of their clients have never seen a vet before.
Despite the odds, Veterinarians Without Borders (VWB) rely on boundless ingenuity to save lives and reduce animal suffering in the new webseries Vets Without Borders. The show follows a team of VWB volunteer vets and vet techs to Todos Santos, Guatemala, a small mountain village where rabid dogs have attacked people, transmitting the deadly disease. The vets are there to spay/neuter and vaccinate the dog population, but in a community with no other vet care there are many more crises to overcome.
