About the Show: Dr. Jeff Rocky Mountain Vet
Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet is a series that focuses on the workaround Young’s clinic, which, is based in the Colorado Rocky Mountains. The series premiered on the 11th of July, 2015, and saw Jeffrey’s team attempt to save an animal that was experiencing a cardiac arrest.
During the show’s first season, Jeff’s clinic took on several interesting cases. These include rescue sled dogs, miniature pigs, and a beagle that had been in a fight with another dog. Besides Jeffrey Young, several other vets have also worked on the show. A few names on the list include Rachel Nichols, Donald Kraft, and Amy Hutcheson.
Jeff revealed that they took a major financial hit during its first season. This would have typically signaled cancellation for most shows. However, the cast of Dr. Jeff Rocky Mountain vet got a chance to fix things during the second season. The producers even assembled a better crew, with the end result being that one of the episodes during that season generated an impressive 1.5 million views.

One such case saw the gang help a dog that had eaten a rock for lunch.
