The veterinary profession is puzzling. How did anyone even think to treat animals how we treat humans? It started in 9000 BC. They were the first people we know of to ever use the veterinary profession. They were mostly from the Middle East Countries such as Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Turkey, and Iraq. The Sheep Herders had a strong understanding of medical skills. Which they used their medical skills on dogs and other animals. From 4000-3000 BC the Egyptians took earlier medical skills and made further advancements. The historical records show how they used herbs to treat and promote good health in tamed animals. Then in 3000 BC Urlugaledinna lived in Mesopotamia and was considered an expert on healing animals. In 1761 Claude Bourgelat founded a veterinary school in Lyon, France. In 1785 the British veterinary profession began. Veterinarians used to be mainly for horses then evolved to cattle, livestock than dogs and now companion and exotic animals.

Animal Research is topic that is highly debated by several people, especially those in the medical and the vet world. Why is this such a debatable topic to individuals? Many people consider animal research to cruel and inhumane, and others believe that it is for the greater good to help find cures for humans. Ron Karpati, a former pediatrician and who is now a medical researcher, agrees that animal research is used for the greater good even though it inflicts pain on animals. Karpati wrote an article called, “ I am the Enemy,” and in this article he states several points that prove his belief on animal research.

Barbara Natterson-Horowitz gave a TEDMED speech in September of 2014 entitled What Veterinarians Know That Doctors Don’t. Dr. Natterson-Horowitz is a professor of Medicine at UCLA Medical School in the Division of Cardiology. Additionally, she is an advocate of zoobiquity, or the connection of animal and human health. Her speech describes how a phone call introduced her to the world of veterinary medicine and, consequently, led her to promote the concept of physicians and veterinarians working together to further their understanding of medicine and health. In the speech, she provides examples of various instances where human doctors applied animal doctor knowledge to human patients and where animal doctors had the answers human doctors had

In the article “service animals help humans”. It states that “animals aren't just animals with a job they are our best friend” so not only did that animal have a job but they can change you by showing you new stuff. Animals have many purposes in life like showing compassion

Dr. Barbara Natterson-Horowitz is a cardiologist at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center that has been invited to the Los Angeles Zoo multiple times to assist veterinarians in ruling out cardiac related disorders on their animal residents. After assisting these animals she realized that she had treated these same disorders in her human patients. She began wondering why she had never consulted veterinary medicine to treat her patients when veterinarians consulted human medicine to treat their animal patients. Many newly discovered disorders in humans have already been discovered in animals before. She believes the advances in veterinary medicine can be applied to treating disorders in humans. More physicians should attend and consult veterinary

Each year, victims report over 4.5 million cases of dog/cat bites with countless more going unreported. A large percentage of these attacks come from homeless dogs and animals. Spaying and neutering not only reduces homeless animal populations -when shelters already euthanize 2.7 million cats and dogs every year- but studies show it also reduces aggression which in turn significantly lowers the amount of animal bites each year. Every one of those bites develops a fear of animals in people. As an animal lover, this pains me to see this and motivates me to prevent as many as I can. At the moment, I foster and rescue kittens to decrease the amount of homeless cats and lower the number of euthanizations in shelters each year. It is my goal to help as many people have healthy relationships with animals as possible. Studies show that people with companion animals have fewer allergies, are more social, are physically fitter, and are less likely to suffer from depression than those without. And I wholeheartedly agree that my pets and experiences with animals have developed me into the motivated, hard-working, friendly, and empathic person I am today. For these reasons, I wish to devote my career to veterinary medicine and make a difference in the everyday lives of both people and animals, helping the world become a better place starting with man’s best

The concept of “One Health” has recently become a topic of interest in veterinary medicine. One Health is the concept that animal, human and environmental health are closely linked. Understanding the impact animals have on the society is important for a veterinarian to understand. In my personal life, I have experienced many situations where veterinary medicine is closely aligned with public health. Traveling abroad to Mexico, Costa Rica and South Africa allowed me to experience how the health of the public is impacted by a large feral canine population. Littering the streets with excrement, carrying zoonotic diseases such as rabies and posing a serious bite risk, these feral canines pose a severe public health risk. Viewed as vermin and pests,

In the 1940’s, James Herriot was out of veterinary school, and was hired by a man named Siegfried Farnon, who owned a veterinary practice in the English countryside. He was an apprentice until sometime later, when he was more knowledgeable. People usually expected Farnon, and were disappointed by Herriot’s appearance, but when they learned he knew as much as Farnon did, they accepted him as a veterinarian for their animals. However, this took time, and Herriot was frustrated and wondered when the people would stop treating him like he knew nothing about how to treat ailing animals.

The field of medicine is one of the most important fields in our society, the element that keeps our health in check. It is usually supervised by people from different races, genders and nationalities wearing white coats and a stethoscope on their neck, but today you can see that white coat on pigeons, dogs and other animals, but they don’t need a stethoscope or anything, why is that? Animals have showed great abilities in the field of medicine without spending years in medical school, but the secret of their success is behind their natural senses. These Furry heroes can be the doctors without borders for developing countries, shifting the position of health care into better standing due to their low

close observations of human patients, not animals. A study done by Vincent, at a Animal

Our culture has shifted their prime focus from environmental issues concerning animals to new advances in technology and in the medical discoveries. The big factor that has helped society grow is through the experiments and projects with animals, testing different drugs on them to see affects given to them. In other words society do not give any credit to animals, they only focus on one goal and that is to grow industrially and economically. With new machinery to help process food, construction materials, cosmetics for beauty, and new medications to improve the human life, I am not saying these sources are not needed but not every new step to progress has to involve the abuse of an animal or animals. For this very reason, I recognize and support organizations like People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA), and Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA) that have one goal be the voice of all animals and to rise up the issue of animal rights. Dr.Malamud is one to actively comply with the motives that these organizations aim for, in keeping animals in their habitat and not abusing of them.

During the past century, researchers have made tremendous historical medical breakthroughs in improving and extending the quality of life by using animals for medical research. For example, Animal Research The Search For Life Saving Answers by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control, concluded people are living an average of 20 years longer because of the research (with animals) that has maintained the control of most infectious diseases. Even with evidence to prove the advances, animal right activists question the effectiveness of using animals, examining the moral and ethic issues

They provide for us, they bring us happiness, even though some animals can be dangerous, some are not and they can be kind. Therefore, animal’s needs are just as high as people’s needs. Animals provide friendship, companionship, security, and service animals. Finally, animal’s needs are very important like peoples.
