Veterinarians Juggle Family, Animals and Business on Animal Planet's "Texas Vets" (WT)

Tuskegee Alumni and Families Featured in All-New Series Premiering in June

(New York, NY) - Animal Planet announced today a new docu-series, TEXAS VET (WT), which introduces three Texas-based veterinarians, Dr. Diarra Blue, Dr. Aubrey Ross and Dr. Michael Lavigne, who run a thriving vet clinic, as well as an animal shelter, in the greater Houston area. The eight-episode season premieres on Saturday, June 4 at 10:00 p.m. ET/PT.

Equal parts laughter and drama, TEXAS VETS (WT) follows veterinarians, Dr. Blue, Dr. Ross and Dr. Lavigne, as they navigate the balancing act of running their newly-opened animal hospital and rescue while managing the everyday stress of raising their families alongside their wives. The series captures the doctors' home life with their spouses, children, parents, in-laws, pets and large group of friends.

The three doctors developed a strong friendship while attending Tuskegee University's College of Veterinary Medicine and reconvened in Las Vegas where they began their careers and honed their surgery skills. After years of paying their dues, they decided to fulfill their dreams of owning their own practice and set their sights on Dr. Ross' hometown of Houston. In 2015, Cy-Fair Animal Hospital opened its doors to service the community and their pets.

The veterinarians are dedicated to providing the best care for their patients - both human and animal. Dr. Blue's personality keeps them smiling and in good spirits while Dr. Ross keeps the clinic running during an often hectic work day. Dr. Lavigne is a skilled surgeon who provides balance. With a combined experience of over 22 years and a shared love of animals, Dr. Diarra Blue, Dr. Aubrey Ross and Dr. Michael Lavigne thrive to educate the public about the importance of preventative medicine in order to extend the longevity of the human animal bond.

TEXAS VETS is produced for Animal Planet by Nancy Glass Productions with Argle Bargle Films. For Nancy Glass Productions, Nancy Glass is the executive producer. For Argle Bargle Films, Jairus Cobb and Shannon Biggs are executive producers. For Animal Planet, Keith Hoffman is executive producer and Sarah Russell is associate producer.
