Dr. Dee Thornell embarks on her first cross-country flight as a new pilot to treat animals in the Arctic Circle. She also cares for an aging, beloved border collie and a disabled Siberian husky with a fighting spirit.

Dr. Dee flies to a remote village in Ruby, Alaska, to do a marathon spay and neuter clinic at a laundromat. At one of the largest cattle ranches in the state, Dr. Dee fights to deliver a calf struggling to be born.

Dr. Dee checks the health of a black bear who just woke from hibernation. But that was the easy part! A routine cattle castration turns dangerous. And a local radio station teams up with Dr. Dee to find a home for a special-needs dog.

Dr. Dee examines a large horse for a potentially deadly problem and treats a feisty miniature horse. She also teaches a new pig farmer how to castrate piglets. Dr. Terry brings a surrendered dog back to Fairbanks in the hopes of finding a forever home.
