0:00:02 > 0:00:04Welcome to day four at Pet School.
0:00:04 > 0:00:06I'm Luke Franks and for our nine Pet Heads,
0:00:06 > 0:00:08it's almost the end of the first week of term.
0:00:08 > 0:00:11But they are not off the leash yet.
0:00:11 > 0:00:14They're going to have to work like dogs - no offence, Clark -
0:00:14 > 0:00:17if they're going to get a good school report at the end of it.
0:00:17 > 0:00:18They've got it all to work for.
0:00:18 > 0:00:21Me and Clark, though, we're tight, we got it sorted.
0:00:21 > 0:00:23CAT MEOWS
0:00:23 > 0:00:24Whoa, whoa!
0:00:24 > 0:00:27'Nine pet crazy kids.'
0:00:27 > 0:00:29I'd like to have a dog.
0:00:29 > 0:00:30I'd really like a rabbit.
0:00:30 > 0:00:32I really want a pet rat.
0:00:32 > 0:00:34'101 animals needing care and attention.'
0:00:37 > 0:00:38SCREAMING
0:00:38 > 0:00:39'Two incredible weeks.'
0:00:41 > 0:00:42SHE SCREAMS
0:00:42 > 0:00:44'But have our pet-lovers got the animal know-how...'
0:00:44 > 0:00:47SHE SCREAMS
0:00:47 > 0:00:50'..to persuade their parents they've got what it takes
0:00:50 > 0:00:52'to look after a pet of their very own?'
0:00:52 > 0:00:55Has she proved to you she can be a responsible pet owner?
0:00:55 > 0:00:56Is she getting a pet?
0:01:16 > 0:01:17'Previously on Pet School...
0:01:17 > 0:01:20'the Pet Heads kicked up a stink over a skink.'
0:01:20 > 0:01:21I don't care actually.
0:01:21 > 0:01:23- We do.- But we do.
0:01:23 > 0:01:24It's not just you, Tommy.
0:01:24 > 0:01:27'And Lauren felt a little henpecked.'
0:01:27 > 0:01:28SHE SCREAMS
0:01:28 > 0:01:31'Coming up today,
0:01:31 > 0:01:35'football star Casey Stoney drops by with her pug Ralphy.
0:01:35 > 0:01:39'A high-speed cat chase causes problems for our Pet Heads.'
0:01:39 > 0:01:41That's why I hate cats.
0:01:45 > 0:01:48'Assembly time, get a move on, Pet Heads.'
0:01:49 > 0:01:51- Hello.- Hi.
0:01:51 > 0:01:54- Good morning, Pet Heads. - ALL:- Good morning.
0:01:54 > 0:01:56We're almost halfway through now.
0:01:56 > 0:01:59And so, very quickly, what are we going to do today,
0:01:59 > 0:02:01what are we going to do to make sure we pass our pet practices?
0:02:01 > 0:02:03Courtney, one thing, go!
0:02:03 > 0:02:04Read the guide manual.
0:02:04 > 0:02:06- We've heard it before. Sam! - Listen to each other.
0:02:06 > 0:02:09Yup, big. OK, you know what to do, that's it.
0:02:09 > 0:02:11It's still time to prove yourself, still time to step up.
0:02:11 > 0:02:14- Prove you can be a responsible pet owner. We up for it?- Yeah!
0:02:14 > 0:02:18Yes, let's put you into your groups. Group 1.
0:02:18 > 0:02:19- Oooh... - ALL:- Oooh...
0:02:19 > 0:02:23Thomas, Chloe and Ananya...
0:02:23 > 0:02:25- you are with the budgies.- Yes!
0:02:25 > 0:02:30- Yes, we like budgies do we?- I used to have two.- Oh, cool, OK.
0:02:30 > 0:02:34You have to get inside the aviary with them. Is that all right?
0:02:34 > 0:02:36- Yeah, I think. - Flying around, landing on your head.
0:02:36 > 0:02:39They're little. Yeah, I'm fine.
0:02:39 > 0:02:41If they poo on you, remember it's lucky, it's fine.
0:02:41 > 0:02:45Group 2, Faramaz - yes!
0:02:45 > 0:02:47Courtney and William.
0:02:47 > 0:02:50And you are with the cats.
0:02:50 > 0:02:52Nice! Happy with that, Faramaz?
0:02:52 > 0:02:54I like cats.
0:02:54 > 0:02:55Cool! Good answer.
0:02:55 > 0:02:58Group 3, Lauren, Tommy and Sam.
0:02:58 > 0:03:03You are with the rabbits. Ah, Ananya's Pet Buddy.
0:03:03 > 0:03:04Give them some advice on that.
0:03:04 > 0:03:07Um, fast movements really scare them.
0:03:07 > 0:03:10So if you jump, they'll get really scared.
0:03:10 > 0:03:13- So, we've got to be quite patient with them.- Yeah, patient.
0:03:13 > 0:03:14Patience is crucial.
0:03:14 > 0:03:17Cool, OK. Marie, of course, will be watching over you as usual.
0:03:17 > 0:03:19She's given you lots of advice now.
0:03:19 > 0:03:22Make sure you take it on board. Today is going to happen, right?
0:03:22 > 0:03:24No failures. I can feel it, it's going to be good.
0:03:24 > 0:03:26- I feel it.- You feel it, you're getting that vibe as well?
0:03:26 > 0:03:28Yeah. I'm getting that energy.
0:03:28 > 0:03:31Good, OK, well, complete it, do it properly.
0:03:31 > 0:03:33Off you go. See you later. Bye-bye.
0:03:41 > 0:03:43Excuse me, ladies. Now, with every pet practice,
0:03:43 > 0:03:46our Pet Heads are one crucial step closer to persuading
0:03:46 > 0:03:49their parents to maybe buy them a pet of their very own.
0:03:49 > 0:03:51So, will they flock together as a team,
0:03:51 > 0:03:55or are they just going to ruffle each other's feathers?
0:03:55 > 0:03:58Chicken joke there. Chicken yoke there, if you think about it.
0:03:58 > 0:04:01But I did poach it off a friend, so...
0:04:01 > 0:04:04'On the subject of yokes, over at the aviary,
0:04:04 > 0:04:08'Chloe, Ananya and Thomas are ready to fly in on their tasks.'
0:04:08 > 0:04:11"Hi, bird brains. Meet our resident budgies.
0:04:11 > 0:04:12"Don't they look pretty?
0:04:12 > 0:04:15"You need to change the budgies' environment.
0:04:15 > 0:04:18"Clean down the perches, wooden bowls and change the food and water.
0:04:18 > 0:04:21"You have 45 minutes to complete these tasks.
0:04:21 > 0:04:23"Thomas, you're the team leader. Good luck."
0:04:23 > 0:04:25- Right, come on. - Right, close the door first.
0:04:25 > 0:04:28- Remember, the budgies will fly out. - OK, we're going to have to...
0:04:28 > 0:04:30OK, right. OK.
0:04:30 > 0:04:33While Chloe and Thomas are keen to jump straight into the aviary,
0:04:33 > 0:04:36one team member is happy to stay outside.
0:04:36 > 0:04:40Ananya is doing the food and the watering.
0:04:40 > 0:04:43So, she's doing most of the outside work.
0:04:43 > 0:04:46Well, I haven't actually been around budgies before,
0:04:46 > 0:04:48so I'm not too sure how they're going to react.
0:04:48 > 0:04:52At the moment, we're kind of moving things around.
0:04:52 > 0:04:57So, after we've done that, we're just going to wash them.
0:04:57 > 0:05:00And then I think we're going to feed them.
0:05:00 > 0:05:01'Wash them? Really?'
0:05:01 > 0:05:04Do we need to move some logs around maybe?
0:05:04 > 0:05:06It gives it kind of a new look.
0:05:06 > 0:05:09We're like the interior designers for budgies.
0:05:09 > 0:05:11'Meanwhile, over at the cat room,
0:05:11 > 0:05:14'there's a mixed reaction to the feline friends.'
0:05:14 > 0:05:19I feel quite happy because I think they're really, really cute.
0:05:19 > 0:05:25Yeah, yeah. But William, his mum, has an allergy.
0:05:25 > 0:05:29'Right, an allergy in the family - that's a good start(!)
0:05:29 > 0:05:31'Let's hope William doesn't have a similar problem.
0:05:31 > 0:05:35'The group's tasks are to complete pet care checks,
0:05:35 > 0:05:39'feed the cats, and clean out their litter trays.'
0:05:39 > 0:05:41You have 45 minutes to complete these tasks.
0:05:41 > 0:05:43William, you're the team leader.
0:05:43 > 0:05:45'Best get delegating.'
0:05:45 > 0:05:46Can you do the litter tray?
0:05:46 > 0:05:49- Yeah, I'll do it. - Can you do care checks?- OK.
0:05:49 > 0:05:51Good morning, Pet Heads.
0:05:51 > 0:05:53- ALL:- Morning. - How we doing?
0:05:53 > 0:05:56- Good, thanks.- So, you're giving a little bit of a team leader,
0:05:56 > 0:06:00chilled cat approach from this chair, then.
0:06:00 > 0:06:03- Cats, they just make you quite chilled, I think.- Yeah, I think.
0:06:03 > 0:06:07'Cats make you quite chilled. I like the sound of that.
0:06:07 > 0:06:08'When they're not at Pet School,
0:06:08 > 0:06:11'Effy and Roman live at this rescue centre.
0:06:13 > 0:06:16Cats end up here for all sorts of reasons.
0:06:16 > 0:06:19And with Effy and Roman, it was a particularly sad story.
0:06:19 > 0:06:21Their owner was going to be evicted from their home
0:06:21 > 0:06:23with nowhere for her or the cats to go.
0:06:23 > 0:06:25And as much as she didn't want to part with them,
0:06:25 > 0:06:27she had to bring them in to us.
0:06:27 > 0:06:29If the owners hadn't brought them in to us, the owner
0:06:29 > 0:06:31may have had to leave them in the property
0:06:31 > 0:06:32and they would have become strays.
0:06:32 > 0:06:34Which would have been awful.
0:06:34 > 0:06:36Effy is a really confident cat.
0:06:36 > 0:06:40She's very cheeky, she's really nosey, she's always on the go.
0:06:40 > 0:06:42Roman, he's a bit of a lazy character.
0:06:42 > 0:06:44He likes to be chilling in his bed,
0:06:44 > 0:06:46relaxing, and generally just watching Effy.
0:06:46 > 0:06:49The cats are really going to bring a bit of mischief to Pet School.
0:06:49 > 0:06:51And the children are really going to have to
0:06:51 > 0:06:52keep their eye out for these two.
0:06:54 > 0:06:56Right, crack on, do your health check nice and calm.
0:06:56 > 0:06:59Make sure the cats are sitting on the floor.
0:06:59 > 0:07:01One of you stroking and rewarding each time. OK?
0:07:01 > 0:07:03I'll see you later on.
0:07:03 > 0:07:06'Faramaz is on poop scoop duty.'
0:07:06 > 0:07:09- Put the litter in the bin bag. - Yeah.
0:07:09 > 0:07:10'William's sorting breakfast.'
0:07:10 > 0:07:12Need a health check still.
0:07:12 > 0:07:14'And Courtney has a brilliant plan for giving
0:07:14 > 0:07:15'the cats their health checks.'
0:07:15 > 0:07:18I'm going to try and get the cats to come over using treats.
0:07:18 > 0:07:20'Uh-huh.'
0:07:21 > 0:07:23Hm.
0:07:23 > 0:07:24Yes.
0:07:24 > 0:07:26Courtney, where do you think we should put...?
0:07:28 > 0:07:31'How's that plan working out for you, Courtney?'
0:07:31 > 0:07:34I guess I could do it if she stays still in one place.
0:07:34 > 0:07:37'While Courtney thinks up plan B,
0:07:37 > 0:07:39'over at the rabbit enclosure
0:07:39 > 0:07:41'it's straight down to bunny business.'
0:07:41 > 0:07:45The task that we did yesterday was with the skink.
0:07:45 > 0:07:51And we failed because we didn't scrub the water bowl or anything.
0:07:51 > 0:07:54And today, hopefully, we'll be able to get
0:07:54 > 0:07:55the task done in the allotted time.
0:07:55 > 0:07:58'Today's tasks are to clean out the rabbit enclosure,
0:07:58 > 0:08:01'top up the sandpits, and make hay kebabs.
0:08:01 > 0:08:03'Lauren is the team leader.
0:08:03 > 0:08:06'And, as usual, they've got 45 minutes to complete their tasks.'
0:08:06 > 0:08:09There we go. Cool, I've got it.
0:08:09 > 0:08:11Well done.
0:08:11 > 0:08:14- This is new hay in there?- Yup. - That's cool, we're happy with that.
0:08:14 > 0:08:17'But it seems rabbits may not be the only things
0:08:17 > 0:08:18'that live in a rabbit house.'
0:08:18 > 0:08:21Oh, I see it, it's a massive spider.
0:08:22 > 0:08:25- Where?- See it?- Oh, yeah. - Can you get it?
0:08:25 > 0:08:27SHE SQUEALS
0:08:27 > 0:08:29Chuck it outside, chuck it outside!
0:08:29 > 0:08:31Yeah, he's well and truly gone.
0:08:31 > 0:08:34'While Sam battles to keep the massive spider outside,
0:08:34 > 0:08:38'back at the aviary, Ananya has finally decided to venture inside.'
0:08:39 > 0:08:40Lock the door.
0:08:40 > 0:08:43'False alarm, she's back outside.
0:08:43 > 0:08:46'To be fair, the others aren't exactly encouraging her.'
0:08:46 > 0:08:49Drop it down and then lock that door.
0:08:49 > 0:08:52No, don't open two at once!
0:08:52 > 0:08:55We definitely need to keep, like, one door closed
0:08:55 > 0:08:56when we want to open another.
0:08:56 > 0:08:59Cos once they come out, you can't get them back in.
0:08:59 > 0:09:01'Right, OK, I think I've got this.
0:09:01 > 0:09:03'Close one before you open the next.'
0:09:03 > 0:09:06You'll be locked in the middle and then we'll let you in.
0:09:06 > 0:09:08Right, OK. Yay, hi.
0:09:08 > 0:09:10So they're all fed and ready?
0:09:10 > 0:09:13Well, she's just going to put some fresh food in now
0:09:13 > 0:09:16and then we're pretty done.
0:09:16 > 0:09:19Yeah? Are you staying outside for the whole task, Ananya?
0:09:19 > 0:09:20Or are you gonna...
0:09:20 > 0:09:22Probably not cos I'm almost finished.
0:09:22 > 0:09:26- Right, you're going to come in and hang out with the birds? - Yeah, hopefully.
0:09:26 > 0:09:28Oh, hello. Hi.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Yeah, they love to fly everywhere.
0:09:30 > 0:09:31Yeah. Have any landed on you yet?
0:09:31 > 0:09:34- Every time I go close, watch. - Every time I go closer.
0:09:34 > 0:09:35Watch this.
0:09:35 > 0:09:37THEY WHISTLE
0:09:37 > 0:09:39What are we saying in budgie? Nobody knows.
0:09:39 > 0:09:42- They just run away. - Right, OK.
0:09:42 > 0:09:45'I'm not scared. I just know budgies poop roughly every 15 minutes.
0:09:46 > 0:09:50'More importantly, will Ananya ever make it inside?
0:09:52 > 0:09:55'Over at the rabbit enclosure, the team are bouncing through
0:09:55 > 0:09:57'their bunny tasks.
0:09:57 > 0:09:59'With the sandpit already cleaned...'
0:09:59 > 0:10:01Sandpit's in.
0:10:01 > 0:10:04'..Tommy's making the world's healthiest kebabs.'
0:10:05 > 0:10:07Are we told how many kebabs we've got to make?
0:10:07 > 0:10:10'They taste pretty good, to rabbits.
0:10:10 > 0:10:13'And foraging helps bunnies behave like they would in the wild.'
0:10:13 > 0:10:15Guys, I've got one part of the kebab done.
0:10:15 > 0:10:17Yeah, yeah, yeah.
0:10:17 > 0:10:19We're just putting the hay in now.
0:10:19 > 0:10:22'Lauren and Sam are making the house squeaky clean,
0:10:22 > 0:10:23'ready for the rabbits' return.'
0:10:23 > 0:10:25I think this is a bit too much.
0:10:25 > 0:10:30- Just spread it round a bit. - 'Nice digs, really nice.
0:10:30 > 0:10:33'So nice, it looks like Tommy's going to stay.
0:10:33 > 0:10:37- Lock me in the room.- Lock you?
0:10:37 > 0:10:39- Yeah.- Well, shut the door.
0:10:40 > 0:10:42This hay needs to be moved anyway.
0:10:43 > 0:10:44Ouch.
0:10:44 > 0:10:46'Sweeping off the front step.'
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Move it out the way. Bunnies are coming out the cage.
0:10:49 > 0:10:51'Moving around the furniture.'
0:10:51 > 0:10:53You pass me that one.
0:10:53 > 0:10:55'Yeah, he's not going anywhere.
0:10:55 > 0:10:59'Back at the aviary, things are also looking as clean as a whistle.
0:10:59 > 0:11:01'A bird's whistle, obviously.
0:11:01 > 0:11:05'And Ananya seems like she's ready to come into the enclosure.
0:11:05 > 0:11:06'If Thomas will let her.'
0:11:06 > 0:11:10We have got a bit of time left so maybe Ananya should come in?
0:11:10 > 0:11:16Yeah, if you... Yeah, yeah, cos it gives her a chance to bond
0:11:16 > 0:11:17with the creatures.
0:11:19 > 0:11:22Oh, guys, you've forgotten some things.
0:11:22 > 0:11:25I'm not actually scared of the budgies
0:11:25 > 0:11:27cos they don't want to really do anything.
0:11:27 > 0:11:29They're just flying.
0:11:29 > 0:11:32I think Ananya did very well going inside cos she,
0:11:32 > 0:11:35kind of, she was very scared at the beginning,
0:11:35 > 0:11:38but once she got inside, she just conquered her fears.
0:11:38 > 0:11:40And she went for it.
0:11:40 > 0:11:44You're working very well for a person that hasn't been in for so long.
0:11:44 > 0:11:46Thank you.
0:11:46 > 0:11:49Chloe, make sure everything's tidied up.
0:11:49 > 0:11:50I have, I've checked everything.
0:11:50 > 0:11:52Extra food, like, the nibble that they needed.
0:11:52 > 0:11:55Great, you're all doing a great job, guys, well done.
0:11:55 > 0:11:57'Nice pep talk, Thomas.
0:11:57 > 0:11:58'Back in the cat room,
0:11:58 > 0:12:02'flattery isn't getting Courtney very far with the felines.'
0:12:03 > 0:12:08I think they're just getting used to us, so eventually we'll get there.
0:12:08 > 0:12:11'Right, eventually.'
0:12:11 > 0:12:12Discharge.
0:12:14 > 0:12:16Just getting my hands round...
0:12:26 > 0:12:29That's why I hate cats.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31'He hates cats!
0:12:31 > 0:12:32'So, what animal does he like?
0:12:33 > 0:12:36'William is 11 years old, and lives with his mum,
0:12:36 > 0:12:38'his dad and his sister, Lucy.
0:12:38 > 0:12:39'William enjoys cricket...
0:12:41 > 0:12:43'..playing computer games
0:12:43 > 0:12:45'and taking part in triathlons.
0:12:47 > 0:12:51'So, got any pets in mind, William?'
0:12:51 > 0:12:54- I'd like to have a bearded dragon. - 'So what's the problem?'
0:12:54 > 0:12:58My dad doesn't think me and my sister are responsible enough
0:12:58 > 0:12:59to look after it.
0:12:59 > 0:13:01'Is that the only reason, Dad?'
0:13:01 > 0:13:03It might get out of its cage.
0:13:03 > 0:13:06Might get behind the wardrobe.
0:13:06 > 0:13:08Next thing you know, it's in the bathroom.
0:13:09 > 0:13:11And that's not what I need in my life.
0:13:11 > 0:13:14He probably would absolutely hate it.
0:13:14 > 0:13:17'OK, so how is William ever going to get a pet?'
0:13:17 > 0:13:20For them to change their mind, I think I'd have to show
0:13:20 > 0:13:23that I'm responsible enough to look after a pet.
0:13:23 > 0:13:25What will show up really well is how he looks after
0:13:25 > 0:13:27a whole range of different animals.
0:13:27 > 0:13:29So, not just the ones that he wants to look after.
0:13:29 > 0:13:33But the ones that perhaps he isn't so keen to look after.
0:13:33 > 0:13:37I think William's chances of getting a pet will rest with his father.
0:13:37 > 0:13:40- Oh, Dad!- 'Sorry!'
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Right, OK, William, team leader,
0:13:43 > 0:13:45is picking up your bits, Faramaz, there.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47'William's definitely pulling his weight.
0:13:47 > 0:13:49'But it looks like Faramaz might have been cat napping
0:13:49 > 0:13:51'through this pet practice.'
0:13:51 > 0:13:53Faramaz, just have a scout around.
0:13:53 > 0:13:55There's one litter tray there, how many cats are there?
0:13:55 > 0:13:57Two.
0:13:57 > 0:13:58Right, any thoughts?
0:13:58 > 0:14:00Two litter trays.
0:14:00 > 0:14:02Boom, mate, you nailed it, smashed it.
0:14:02 > 0:14:04My goodness, there's a pong from in here.
0:14:04 > 0:14:06Faramaz!
0:14:06 > 0:14:09'So that's the second litter tray identified.
0:14:09 > 0:14:11'With a bit of help. But with just under two minutes to go,
0:14:11 > 0:14:14'it's all on Faramaz to get this finished.'
0:14:14 > 0:14:17Could you get the newspaper for me?
0:14:18 > 0:14:20That's it, time is up on pet practice
0:14:20 > 0:14:22and the real question is,
0:14:22 > 0:14:24will any of our Pet Heads have to stay behind
0:14:24 > 0:14:26to complete their unfinished tasks?
0:14:26 > 0:14:27Or have they done them properly
0:14:27 > 0:14:30and earned themselves the maximum time with their pet buddies?
0:14:30 > 0:14:34And at this stage at Pet School, everyone knows just what's at stake.
0:14:34 > 0:14:35'Coming up,
0:14:35 > 0:14:37'football star Casey Stoney
0:14:37 > 0:14:40'and her pug Ralphy are put through their paces.'
0:14:40 > 0:14:42I train in the mornings. I get the whole day
0:14:42 > 0:14:44to spend with him and look after him.
0:14:44 > 0:14:45Crack it.
0:14:45 > 0:14:47Faramaz whips up a tasty ferret treat
0:14:47 > 0:14:48and Lauren gets in a flap.
0:14:48 > 0:14:51- Think about that. - I'm scared she's going to peck me.
0:14:59 > 0:15:02Pet Heads! So, this morning, at morning assembly,
0:15:02 > 0:15:05- we had a good feeling, right? - ALL: Yes.
0:15:05 > 0:15:07You got the vibe, it's going to be a big day, isn't it?
0:15:07 > 0:15:10'So, here is how you did...'
0:15:10 > 0:15:14Chloe, Ananya and Thomas managed to change the budgie's environment,
0:15:14 > 0:15:18clean the perches and give the birds fresh food and water.
0:15:18 > 0:15:21Lauren, Tommy and Sam cleaned out the bunny enclosure,
0:15:21 > 0:15:24topped up the sandpit and made hay kebabs.
0:15:24 > 0:15:26And Courtney, Faramaz and William
0:15:26 > 0:15:29completed their cats' pet care checks, fed them
0:15:29 > 0:15:31and cleaned out the litter trays.
0:15:31 > 0:15:32Just.
0:15:32 > 0:15:35All three groups completed their pet practices!
0:15:35 > 0:15:36- Yeah!- Yes!
0:15:36 > 0:15:40So, you all know, at Pet School, that we get special visitors here.
0:15:40 > 0:15:41Today is no exception.
0:15:41 > 0:15:43We've got an amazing guest who has come to say hi.
0:15:43 > 0:15:45Two amazing guests, in fact.
0:15:45 > 0:15:49The first is football crazy. She is captain of the England team,
0:15:49 > 0:15:51with over 100 caps.
0:15:51 > 0:15:54She's also captain of the women's GB team, at the Olympics, as well.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56The second is her dog.
0:15:56 > 0:16:00Please say hello to Casey Stoney and Ralphy.
0:16:00 > 0:16:03- Give her a wave, yeah!- Yeah!
0:16:03 > 0:16:05So, tell us a little bit about Ralphy. When did you get him?
0:16:05 > 0:16:07Ralphy, I got him when he was eight weeks old,
0:16:07 > 0:16:09and now he is 16 months old,
0:16:09 > 0:16:12- so he's sort of turned into a little bit of a adult dog now.- Awesome.
0:16:12 > 0:16:15And, like myself, he needs a lot of exercise, too.
0:16:15 > 0:16:17So, you're doing a lot of training.
0:16:17 > 0:16:19Does he come along? Does he get involved in the training?
0:16:19 > 0:16:21I go over the park and I do my own sessions.
0:16:21 > 0:16:23He makes my life pretty difficult,
0:16:23 > 0:16:25cos I put the cones down and he normally picks them up
0:16:25 > 0:16:27- and runs off with them, doesn't he?- Yeah!
0:16:27 > 0:16:31Pet Heads, got any questions for Casey about having a dog full-time?
0:16:31 > 0:16:35Is it difficult to have to balance your training
0:16:35 > 0:16:36with caring for him?
0:16:36 > 0:16:38Yeah, it is. It was something I had to think about
0:16:38 > 0:16:42before I decided to get a dog, because I don't work nine-to-five.
0:16:42 > 0:16:43I train in the mornings,
0:16:43 > 0:16:46I get pretty much the whole day to spend with him and look after him.
0:16:46 > 0:16:48So, behind us we have a little dog agility course.
0:16:48 > 0:16:51So, Casey, you're going to show us how it's done with Ralphy.
0:16:51 > 0:16:53So tell us what you're going to do.
0:16:53 > 0:16:55We're going to try and get Ralphy to follow this
0:16:55 > 0:16:57through the course and score a goal at the end.
0:16:57 > 0:16:58Sounds good. No pressure.
0:16:58 > 0:17:01Captain of the England team setting the Pet School standards.
0:17:01 > 0:17:04- Guys, give her a little cheer. - ALL: Yay!
0:17:04 > 0:17:07Yes, Ralphy. Looking good, looking strong.
0:17:07 > 0:17:09Going to score?
0:17:09 > 0:17:13- Goal side, yeah!- Good boy. Good boy!
0:17:13 > 0:17:15Well done, Ralphy.
0:17:15 > 0:17:16Meadow, up for the challenge?
0:17:16 > 0:17:18- SHE WHISTLES - Meadow!
0:17:18 > 0:17:20Meadow!
0:17:20 > 0:17:23'Guess not. With Meadow off, it's a chance for Clark to shine.'
0:17:23 > 0:17:25Courtney, he's your Pet Buddy,
0:17:25 > 0:17:27he's a big dog, you've got yourself a challenge,
0:17:27 > 0:17:29but representing Pet School, OK?
0:17:29 > 0:17:31'Clark's psyching himself up.
0:17:31 > 0:17:34'He looks a little bit uncertain at the beginning, there.
0:17:34 > 0:17:37'Not as accomplished as Ralphy, but he seems to be following the treat.
0:17:37 > 0:17:40'Time for a sit down, and it's up to Courtney to finish the job!
0:17:40 > 0:17:42'Wallop!'
0:17:42 > 0:17:43ALL CHANT: Go Clark, go Clark!
0:17:43 > 0:17:45'Clark's heading for a time out.
0:17:45 > 0:17:48'Meanwhile, it's speed and grace on the wing from Ralphy,
0:17:48 > 0:17:50'dodging in and out of the cones.'
0:17:50 > 0:17:51Nice work!
0:17:51 > 0:17:53'Takes a seat while Sam steps up.
0:17:53 > 0:17:55'Smash! Back of the net.'
0:17:55 > 0:17:56Yeah!
0:17:56 > 0:17:58'And he's off again.
0:17:58 > 0:18:01'Surely there's no way he can repeat this feat.
0:18:01 > 0:18:03'A textbook sit down.
0:18:03 > 0:18:06'Blam! 3-0.'
0:18:06 > 0:18:08Nice work.
0:18:08 > 0:18:11'I think Ralphy is man of the match.'
0:18:11 > 0:18:14Casey, thanks so much for coming in, having a chat with us.
0:18:14 > 0:18:17Showing us Ralphy as well, so well-behaved.
0:18:17 > 0:18:19Good luck with the football season. Cheers, Casey!
0:18:19 > 0:18:21- Thank you.- Woo!- Come on, then.
0:18:25 > 0:18:28It's our Pet Heads' fourth day with their Buddies,
0:18:28 > 0:18:31and it looks like some of them have learned a really important lesson.
0:18:31 > 0:18:32Sit...
0:18:32 > 0:18:35The way to their Buddy's heart is through their stomach.
0:18:35 > 0:18:37First to try out this theory is Faramaz,
0:18:37 > 0:18:41who's recently learned that ferrets like the occasional egg as a treat.
0:18:43 > 0:18:45I'm going to use one, because it's big.
0:18:45 > 0:18:48It's raw.
0:18:48 > 0:18:50All right, so the first step
0:18:50 > 0:18:54in Chef Faramaz's special eggs-for-ferrets recipe...
0:18:54 > 0:18:56Give whole egg to ferret.
0:18:56 > 0:19:00I thought you liked eggs? Yes, yes, you do.
0:19:00 > 0:19:03I don't know, how do you eat them?
0:19:03 > 0:19:07Step two, try to crack whole egg for ferret.
0:19:07 > 0:19:08Crack it?
0:19:08 > 0:19:12Step three...drop egg on floor.
0:19:12 > 0:19:13Ah...
0:19:13 > 0:19:17I was cracking it, and then it fell.
0:19:17 > 0:19:19Dinner is served.
0:19:19 > 0:19:24It likes it! It does.
0:19:24 > 0:19:27Ferrets eat anything, even if they're on the floor.
0:19:27 > 0:19:31I just got Smokey out so he can have food with his brother.
0:19:31 > 0:19:33That's not Smokey. It's Flint.
0:19:33 > 0:19:35I've definitely bonded with them now.
0:19:35 > 0:19:37I'm feeling confident in picking them up,
0:19:37 > 0:19:40because now he's just looking at my finger, and it's not nipping.
0:19:40 > 0:19:43It's great to see Faramaz more comfortable with the ferrets
0:19:43 > 0:19:44then he was on day one.
0:19:44 > 0:19:45You don't want to be friends?
0:19:45 > 0:19:48But what about the muckier side of pet care?
0:19:48 > 0:19:51First I wanted to clean them out, and then I wanted to do the poo.
0:19:51 > 0:19:53Then I decided not to...
0:19:53 > 0:19:55cos the ferrets were just too cute, like I said,
0:19:55 > 0:19:57and I just couldn't stand it, so...
0:19:57 > 0:19:59I thought I was going to do it tomorrow.
0:19:59 > 0:20:01Didn't you say that yesterday, Faramaz?
0:20:01 > 0:20:03So I just thought, "No, maybe I'll do it tomorrow."
0:20:03 > 0:20:04Yeah, thought you did.
0:20:06 > 0:20:08Well, one person who's definitely not afraid
0:20:08 > 0:20:11to make a meal of the poo-clearing is Chloe.
0:20:11 > 0:20:12It is very much like spaghetti.
0:20:12 > 0:20:14You have to twist it around, that's how I do it,
0:20:14 > 0:20:17and I tend to get most of it up that way.
0:20:17 > 0:20:23It's like a giant fork... So, yeah.
0:20:23 > 0:20:27Well, of course, on the first day I wasn't too happy
0:20:27 > 0:20:29with the decision of me having a goat as a Pet Buddy,
0:20:29 > 0:20:32but as time has gone on, I've really got used to them.
0:20:32 > 0:20:35And I've figured there is more to it than just watching them eat.
0:20:35 > 0:20:38Spaghetti...and goat balls.
0:20:38 > 0:20:41Spaghetti and goat balls. Delicious!
0:20:41 > 0:20:45I think it's time to find out a bit more about Chloe.
0:20:45 > 0:20:47Chloe is 11 years old and lives with her mum,
0:20:47 > 0:20:51her stepdad, her two brothers and her sister.
0:20:51 > 0:20:53Chloe enjoys writing stories...
0:20:53 > 0:20:55cooking...
0:20:55 > 0:20:56Yum!
0:20:56 > 0:20:58..and dancing.
0:20:58 > 0:20:59# Oh, oh, oh
0:20:59 > 0:21:01# Gangnam style... #
0:21:01 > 0:21:03So, Chloe, what's the score with the pets?
0:21:03 > 0:21:06Well, I used to live in a place with lots and lots of pets,
0:21:06 > 0:21:09but when we had to move we couldn't take them with us.
0:21:09 > 0:21:12Instead, I got a baby brother.
0:21:12 > 0:21:14Couldn't you just pretend?
0:21:16 > 0:21:17Guess not.
0:21:17 > 0:21:20OK, Chloe, tell us why you deserve a pet.
0:21:20 > 0:21:22When we had my little sister Phoebe come,
0:21:22 > 0:21:24I had to look after her quite a lot,
0:21:24 > 0:21:25and I feel if I can look after a toddler,
0:21:25 > 0:21:27then why can't I look after a pet?
0:21:27 > 0:21:30Actually, a few years ago, we had a rabbit.
0:21:30 > 0:21:33She took no responsibility for it. Too interested in her friends.
0:21:33 > 0:21:34No!
0:21:34 > 0:21:38None of us have any time to look after the pets that our kids abandon,
0:21:38 > 0:21:40especially Chloe.
0:21:40 > 0:21:42All right, so what's the plan for Pet School?
0:21:42 > 0:21:45I'm willing to do anything at Pet School to prove I'm ready for a pet,
0:21:45 > 0:21:47and I'll even look after a snake,
0:21:47 > 0:21:50even though I'm really scared of them.
0:21:50 > 0:21:51Sound good, Mum?
0:21:51 > 0:21:54Chloe will not get a pet unless she proves to me at Pet School
0:21:54 > 0:21:57that she can look after pets every single day, get messy,
0:21:57 > 0:22:01and put her responsibilities before her own interests.
0:22:01 > 0:22:05OK, Mum, well, Chloe is definitely getting messy.
0:22:05 > 0:22:09It doesn't always go as you plan, and there's always more revealed,
0:22:09 > 0:22:11where you've got to get a bit down and dirty
0:22:11 > 0:22:13if you want to have a go, all I can say.
0:22:13 > 0:22:16So... Agh...
0:22:16 > 0:22:20While Chloe seems as happy as a pig in muck - or a goat in hay -
0:22:20 > 0:22:24over at the chickens, Lauren isn't feeling quite so content.
0:22:24 > 0:22:26So we know, yesterday, what happened.
0:22:26 > 0:22:28Aah!
0:22:28 > 0:22:31SHE SOBS
0:22:31 > 0:22:33I know that was pretty scary, really, wasn't it?
0:22:33 > 0:22:35- Yeah, it was.- OK.
0:22:35 > 0:22:39I came to Pet School so I could overcome my fear of chickens.
0:22:39 > 0:22:43I did do that... And then, um, the cockerel put me off,
0:22:43 > 0:22:45but then I'm going to try to do it again.
0:22:45 > 0:22:49- How are you feeling right now? - All right. Cos she's with you.
0:22:49 > 0:22:51Do you want to have a little go at touching her?
0:22:51 > 0:22:54- See what you think about that? - I'm scared she's going to peck me.
0:22:54 > 0:22:56How about... CHICKEN CLUCKS
0:22:56 > 0:22:59Oops! I've got her. How about if I come around like this?
0:23:00 > 0:23:02Will she, like, jump, or anything?
0:23:02 > 0:23:05No, I've got hold of her. I've got her wings now.
0:23:08 > 0:23:11- Will I be all right? - You're going to be fine.
0:23:11 > 0:23:13I wouldn't tell you that if I didn't think you were.
0:23:15 > 0:23:16- Really soft.- Yeah.
0:23:18 > 0:23:20It's quite cool, isn't it?
0:23:20 > 0:23:22You've got a little bit of a smile coming out of this face,
0:23:22 > 0:23:24I'm feeling it, yeah?!
0:23:24 > 0:23:27The chickens have just about made Lauren crack a smile.
0:23:27 > 0:23:30And over with the bunnies, Ananya's come on in leaps and bounds
0:23:30 > 0:23:32since her first Buddy session,
0:23:32 > 0:23:34where she couldn't even make it inside the enclosure.
0:23:34 > 0:23:37- Afternoon, Ananya.- Good afternoon.
0:23:37 > 0:23:39How are you feeling today, about this?
0:23:39 > 0:23:41- Um, I'm feeling better.- Yeah.
0:23:41 > 0:23:44- Um, I think I'm just going to start off by feeding.- OK.
0:23:44 > 0:23:47Maybe just bring the feed near your feet a little bit,
0:23:47 > 0:23:50so you can just see how he reacts around you.
0:23:50 > 0:23:54Look, you're standing there, yeah? You're good, you're good.
0:23:54 > 0:23:55This is awesome.
0:23:57 > 0:23:59- Yeah? Are you proud of yourself? - Yeah.
0:23:59 > 0:24:01You're doing really well, Ananya.
0:24:01 > 0:24:04How about hopping up to the next level?
0:24:04 > 0:24:07Once you're feeling happy... That's it, crouch down.
0:24:07 > 0:24:09If it comes up to you, bring the food into you a bit,
0:24:09 > 0:24:12let him come up to you and have a little stroke.
0:24:12 > 0:24:14That's it, stay still.
0:24:14 > 0:24:17Oh, Ananya this is amazing. Well done.
0:24:17 > 0:24:18Yes!
0:24:18 > 0:24:21Right, Ananya I'm going to leave you to it,
0:24:21 > 0:24:24cos I think you have really cracked this fear really well.
0:24:24 > 0:24:27Keep it up. You should be so proud, I'm super proud of you. Well done.
0:24:27 > 0:24:29I actually want rabbits as pets now,
0:24:29 > 0:24:33because they're actually really cute once you get to know them.
0:24:33 > 0:24:35What an amazing achievement, Ananya.
0:24:35 > 0:24:39Well done on really learning to Buddy with your bunnies.
0:24:39 > 0:24:40Back at the chickens,
0:24:40 > 0:24:43another unexpected friendship is also being hatched.
0:24:43 > 0:24:44What are you doing here?
0:24:44 > 0:24:47Um, I'm here to help Lauren out with the chickens.
0:24:47 > 0:24:49Yep? Brilliant.
0:24:49 > 0:24:53It's just like watching fish, it's kind of calming, watching them move.
0:24:53 > 0:24:56Oh, thought about it that way at all, before?
0:24:56 > 0:24:58Not in a fish way, no.
0:24:58 > 0:24:59THEY LAUGH
0:24:59 > 0:25:02I think Lauren's starting to look a bit more relaxed.
0:25:02 > 0:25:04Now, how about we let a chicken out, Marie?
0:25:04 > 0:25:05Have you got her? Right.
0:25:05 > 0:25:08You tell when you're ready for Tommy to let it down.
0:25:08 > 0:25:10- You ready?- Yep.- I'm scared now.
0:25:10 > 0:25:13- You're fine. You're fine, you stay with me.- Are you sure?- Yep.
0:25:13 > 0:25:15Cos she's coming towards me, and I'm really scared.
0:25:15 > 0:25:18- Right, let's walk over here. - Don't worry.
0:25:18 > 0:25:21Tommy, are you able to maybe call the chicken over to you?
0:25:21 > 0:25:24- Let's see what she does. Say, "Chook-chook!"- Chick-chick-chick.
0:25:24 > 0:25:25Keeping brave, Lauren.
0:25:25 > 0:25:26- For me tomorrow...- Yeah?
0:25:26 > 0:25:30I was wondering...can I bring some chicken feed with me?
0:25:30 > 0:25:32And just focus on one chicken?
0:25:32 > 0:25:35Yeah. Can I?
0:25:35 > 0:25:38Can you come in and come and meet and feed one chicken?
0:25:38 > 0:25:39Of course you can!
0:25:39 > 0:25:42No, I couldn't have done it without Tommy,
0:25:42 > 0:25:45because he really helped me today, a lot.
0:25:45 > 0:25:48So, I really thank him for that.
0:25:48 > 0:25:50- Thank you, Tommy!- That's all right.
0:25:54 > 0:25:55You should be proud.
0:25:55 > 0:25:57Yeah...
0:25:57 > 0:25:59It's the end of another Pet Buddy session,
0:25:59 > 0:26:03and one Pet Head who has made amazing progress is Ananya.
0:26:03 > 0:26:06So I think it's time to let her mum know how well she's doing.
0:26:06 > 0:26:09- Hi, Ananya!- Hey!- Come and have a seat. How are you doing?
0:26:09 > 0:26:10- Good.- Good.
0:26:10 > 0:26:14Almost at the end of week one. How do you think it's gone?
0:26:14 > 0:26:18Um, I have failed three tasks, um, but did pass one today.
0:26:18 > 0:26:21Cool. Big day today - and it was a pretty special day today,
0:26:21 > 0:26:23- because you touched the...- Rabbit.
0:26:23 > 0:26:26- Yes, for the first time. Awesome, that's cool.- Super.- Yeah.
0:26:26 > 0:26:30Mum, what do you think, and what do you want to see from Ananya?
0:26:30 > 0:26:34Her, um, even more comfortable around a pet.
0:26:34 > 0:26:36I mean, further than just stroking.
0:26:36 > 0:26:38But I'm really proud of her.
0:26:38 > 0:26:42An amazing achievement. So, with day one you were really nervy and shaky,
0:26:42 > 0:26:45and today you've been able to go in there, feed and stroke them.
0:26:45 > 0:26:47You should be so proud of yourself.
0:26:47 > 0:26:50For the last week, what kind of things do you want to work on?
0:26:50 > 0:26:54If other people think that I get the easier tasks,
0:26:54 > 0:26:56um, also try the harder tasks.
0:26:56 > 0:26:57And we know you can do it.
0:26:57 > 0:27:00- That's the thing. So, up for the challenge?- Yeah.
0:27:00 > 0:27:03Good stuff! All right, cool. Well done, Ananya.
0:27:03 > 0:27:04Yes!
0:27:09 > 0:27:12And that is Pet School closed for day four.
0:27:12 > 0:27:14And I think our Pet Heads have turned a corner today.
0:27:14 > 0:27:16Tomorrow is the last day of the first week
0:27:16 > 0:27:18and our Pet Heads are starting to realise
0:27:18 > 0:27:19that being responsible is key
0:27:19 > 0:27:23if they are going to persuade their parents to get them their dream pet.
0:27:23 > 0:27:26But still a lot to do. Don't miss registration tomorrow,
0:27:26 > 0:27:28and we'll have much more of this.
0:27:28 > 0:27:30Next time on Pet School...
0:27:31 > 0:27:35..Pet Heads turn Wet Heads in a fishy task...
0:27:35 > 0:27:37Thomas makes a new friend...
0:27:37 > 0:27:39Oh!
0:27:39 > 0:27:41I'm really happy right now.
0:27:41 > 0:27:45..and the Pet Heads dive into pet life.
0:27:47 > 0:27:49Oh, yeah. Right, goodbye.
0:27:49 > 0:27:50- Bye!- Bye!
0:27:52 > 0:27:54Yeah? What are we up to?
0:27:54 > 0:27:55Oh, yep, sure. Sure.
0:27:55 > 0:27:57See you later. Yeah.
0:28:02 > 0:28:05It's almost the end of the first week of term,
0:28:05 > 0:28:07but they're not off the... Agh!
