They say that the hardest decision is to decide what you want to be when you grow up and to me that could not be a more accurate statement. The earliest memory I have is my mother telling me to go to college and honestly she’s right. She would repeat it so much it is now engraved in my brain. She had my brother, who at the age of four, told people he was going to “olive” because he couldn’t pronounce the c or the g. She always said we had to go but never what we were going to do once there. She left that part up to us to decide because it is our decision.
In elementary school, they would always ask us what we wanted to be. Like the grade schooler that I was, my mind would change faster than even I could keep track. At that age, I was not unlike the other kids who wanted to be brave firefighters or valiant astronauts, although I admit now the aspect of space travel scares me. And then of course the all so popular veterinarian profession I have chosen to pursue as of today, or “Animal Doctor” as we called it then. But

Unfortunately, I have an extreme phobia of needles used on people so that crossed out human medicine but I when watching a veterinarian TV show one night, I realized that needles when used on animals didn’t affect me at all.

Me being a horse obsessed child who always wanted a pony after listening to my mother’s stories of grandeur when growing up on a ranch in Texas, but couldn’t due to financial troubles at the time, was entirely awestruck by the idea of working with horses. From that point on I made that my life goal and would do anything to reach

When I was younger my mother always told me I would be excellent at being a doctor. My father always told me I would be superior at being a software engineer, like he is. I always told myself I wanted to be an astronaut and travel to the moon like Neil Armstrong had once done. Things change and people change; I completely changed my mind when I started thinking about college and my future. I felt confused and stressed when thinking of which career to pursue. Environmental science and biochemistry is what I had in mind. In
I had no idea what I really wanted to do for the rest of my life. All my friends knew exactly what they wanted to be nurse, cop, mechanic, firefighter, and even a surgeon. But me, no I was so baffled on so many choices that I could not make up my mind. Due to me loving to help others I strongly considered being a Nurse so I could help elderly,
In 2017, a new tax was proposed by President Trump causing a tremendous amount of controversy in the veterinary world. This tax will place “tax on all small animal services with a 6% sales tax”(Sadler) which in “our world it will make it tough”(Sadler). The “Doctors of Veterinary Medicine are medical professionals whose primary responsibility is protecting the health and welfare of animals and people”(Veterinary) which the tax will enable us to do so. The role of a vet is to aid animals but with the tax this will undoubtedly harm them. This ‘simple tax’ to the world is nothing shy of a catastrophe, it includes several challenges and downsides. With circumstances in rural areas, taxes on a veterinary environment would be undoubtedly problematic

If an animal is suffering from an illness that it has a minimal chance of recovering from it may be euthanized.This is so that the animal does not have to suffer and can have a merciful death. An example of a time when euthanasia could be used to avoid letting an animal suffer would be a pet suffering with a terminal illness that medical or surgical therapy can no longer relieve or help. If you euthanize the pet in this case you can end its suffering and not have to watch it suffer through its illness until it inevitably dies. Three other examples of illness that causes unnecessary suffering when you could give the animal a merciful death would be a pet with a severe illness and minimal chance of recovery and survival that will likely
Animal experimentation has been credited for the medicines made to assist diabetes, vaccines for smallpox, deep brain stimulation for parkinson’s disease, and many more along with millions of dollars spent on failed experiments, millions of animal deaths a year, misleading data and an overall bigger loss than gain. The main point of animal testing is to benefit the safety and overall health of humans, but testing on non humans to learn about humans doesn’t contribute to the cause. Humans have the voice protective of their own lives and demand rights, though every living creature deserves the right to life and to safety. The way these animals are being treated is heinous and insulting to the human race, as it subsides our morals and some
