    I’ve always had the need to help animals get better and recover from injury. I want to do this because I always had pets so that influenced me and my older sister wanted to be one too. Is it that, that influenced me? I chose to be a veterinarian because like I stated before, I’ve always been with animals and I love working with them. It is important to me to find out more about this topic because I want to know what I am doing when I am trying to achieve this goal. Knowing and learning what to do before hand could give you an advantage. You would have to attend college learning about science and then after college you would have to go to vet school for four more years then you can become a certified veterinarian. Previously when I was trying to find information about my topic, one of the things I wanted to search up was the age requirement for being a veterinarian. There is no age as long as you finish eight years of college, half regular college and half vet school. Myself being a veterinarian can let me help other people with their animals, I can get good wealth, and I will have the privileged to work with animals.…

    First be a Veterinarian is probably every kid dream, when you love animals. This dream starts when I was probably 5 years old and keep it on my mind until when I was 15 years old. I remember a program which was about a summer camp, in which many kids travel to other countries and they were little veterinarians. I always dreamed to be able to be in that summer camp but I was not able to realize that dream. For the other side I got my first dog when I was 6 years old. He was my patient when I played to be a veterinarian. This dream is really significant to me because taught me to love animals, to be good with animals, and enjoy my dog when both were little.…

    Before you can even think about being a veterinarian, you have to take some questions about yourself into consideration. The big question is “do you have a passion and love for animals?” If you answer no to this, obviously this isn’t the job for you. If you answer yes, then you have a good chance at achieving this as your job. The next question is “are you ready to take on the schooling that is required to be a veterinarian?” In order to become a veterinarian there is so much schooling involved. A Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree (D.V.M.) is required, that’s about four years of veterinary schooling plus the four of pre-veterinary school. With all that together it takes about eight years to fully become a veterinarian. Are you ready for that? The last question is simply “can you handle it?” This one’s a very serious question that needs thought about. There are some tasks that vets have to do in order to save an animal’s life or to make it better. One big task is euthanizing an animal. This is a very hard task for any vet to do. If you ever have to encounter this, just keep in mind that it’s what’s best for the animal and there is nothing else you can do. Another task that I’m pretty sure no vet looks forward to is going in late, working late, or working on the holidays. No one wants to do any of that stuff. Especially with veterinarians, it’s an essential thing. Many times it’s just in case of emergencies in the middle if the night. Veterinarians have a very…
