Do you like working with animals? Would you like to care for animals every day? If yes, then a veterinarian is a good job for you! Every single day a veterinarian works with animals and people. A veterinarian makes sure that your animal is healthy and happy. If there was no one to care for your animal, they would get sick and no one would be there to save them. A veterinarian is responsible for saving over 100 lives a year. The best part about being a veterinarian is being rewarded with knowing that you saved many lives. I believe that college is an important aspect to become a thriving veterinarian.

Of course growing up with multiple pets - cats, dogs, birds, a snake, and an iguana - my passion for the care of animals was bound to happen. As a little girl, I was the one who would yell at people for being inconsiderate of bugs; though as I grew older, my interests in the behavior, nurture, and medical aspects of a Veterinarian spiked way up. What really intrigued my interest at first was reading all over the news the incidents about animal cruelty and neglect. While reading about the incidents, my thoughts were along the same lines as the majority of everyone else’s - “Wow this is just sad, how could someone do this?! We need to stop this!”. But also unlike a good amount of those people, I want to physically help these animals in cruelty and neglect situations and not just sit behind my words. I want to gain knowledge on how to help and bring these animals back to health which goes into my goals with this career.

I want to be a veterinarian when I grow up because I love animals and want to work with them. A veterinarian is a doctor that works with animals. There are many different types of veterinarians such as large animal practitioners, small animal practitioners, mixed

Throughout my life, I have been through many different things. I have been through struggles and successes. I have been through multiple setbacks and breakthroughs. There is one specific setback, however that is very important to me that I overcame. It was not easy, but I finally did it. This setback took place during the time between when I entered high school and the end of my sophomore year.

I've had my goals set high since I was five years old; I aspire to become a board-certified veterinary surgeon. At the young age of five, whenever I was asked the question of what I wanted to "be" when I got older, I confidently answered "I am going to be a vet." Almost thirteen years later, I answer that question even more confidently. I am going to be a veterinarian.

Knowing that many different animals react to many different things, it can be very difficult and a huge responsibility to care for one. Helping animals is a good to way to help the environment and others around you because it satisfies everyone with the results when treating an animal, and you’ll be doing something you like. My career goal is to be a Veterinarian. Being a veterinarian is very “challenging, rewarding, and demanding”. You have to be able to be aware of other people’s feelings and needs. You will come upon important decisions whether they benefit you or not. In order to become a veterinarian, you have to graduate from high school, get a Bachelor’s degree and/or go to a 4-year program at a college of Veterinary Medicine in order

Working at the Carpenter Veterinary Clinic of Nocona, Texas has impacted my life with several life-changing experiences in several small cases. Although one case will forever stay with me throughout my veterinary career, taking care of the dog with excruciating pain has made me want to stick with veterinarian practices, as well as made me stronger.

Throughout the past few years, I have contemplated back and forth constantly of what it is I might want to be when I graduate from high school and college. At first I thought maybe a lawyer, but I soon realized that I am not the type of person to argue against others. Maybe I could be a doctor, but too many people are in that profession or want to be in that profession as it is. After a while of long, hard thinking, I decided that I would apply my love of animals to my future career path, therefor I decided that I wanted to be a Veterinarian. A Veterinarian is a person, much like a doctor, who cares for ill or injured animals. Examples of some of the duties Veterinarians do are dress wounds, perform surgery, diagnose diseases, and even

I love animals and I would love to work with them. Ever since I was a little girl I knew I would want to work with animals because they interested me so much. Becoming a veterinarian isn’t just about playing with dogs and cats all day; you are actually in charge of taking care of them and this is a no messing around job. You are responsible for whatever happens to that dog or any other animal. It’s a tough and serious job but I’m up for the challenge because it’s what I want to do for the rest of my

Being a veterinarian has many of hoops that I must jump through, such as; having important features that will help you throughout the career, different job duties depending on what field of being a veterinary you choose, the education I will need, challenges with clients, the pets themselves and an abundance of other things. There are also a great deal of benefits of the this job, which makes it all worth it. Becoming a veterinarian is the best job for me, because I love to be around animals and I love helping them in life.

My mom has been a Pet Groomer and Veterinary Assistant with 30 years of experience. Since I was pretty young, I always wanted to be at her workplace. I would always watch them with amazement, and see myself as one of them in the future. Never afraid of touching the animals, or disgusted by blood, vomits, diarrhea, etc. In 2011, I started working as an Veterinarian Assistant. My strong will to learn and help kept me growing. The desire to learn all related to medication, illnesses, vaccinations, etc. And compassion for those animals that are unable to describe their pain but to endure it. This personal values made me realize not to give up on my dream of becoming a DVM. I am an introverted person, but when I started training others while being

After interviewing Dr. Jess our family vet, I discovered that you can get into vet school right off the bat, but it’s extremely difficult to get in due to the fact that less than 50% of applicants are accepted, therefore many receive their undergrad before vet school. Dr. Jess also told me lots on what veterinarians truly do. One negative I discovered is that there is lots of record writing and talking amongst the owner of the pet, and not as much hands on activity with the animals-- meaning lots of desk work which goes against my value of adventure. This is due to the fact that it’s important to educate people who are caring for their pets at home. But, one positive is that there is a lot less stress in this job, due to the fact that you are around animals that are scientifically proven to lower stress levels. Dr. Jess also said that one of the biggest reasons she loves her jobs is that helping animals actually makes a difference especially in the community, because it makes people happy. One thing Dr. Jess really emphasized was that you have to take a wider view upon the animal, and that you don’t just fix him or her up. You have to teach a client how to do things properly at home, in order to prevent future illnesses and or injuries. The profession of veterinary medicine involves so much more than just medicine, it’s a job of passion love and

Being a veterinarian doesn't mean dealing with lots of cute animals, it means helping them and making sure they don't get hurt. Veterinarians didn't start in America it started in France. The town doctors would also take care of the animals as well. It takes a lot of work to be a Vet there are stresses and hard work and dedication.

As a child, everyone dreams of what that they want to become in world. Some want to grow up to be doctors, garage drivers, teachers and dancers. My dream has not always been clear to me; I wanted to be a neonatal nurse while I was in high school. I took courses throughout high school, and discovered that nursing was not God’s plan was for me. I did not find out that animal care was what I was truly passionate about until the days after my dog got ran over. Wrapping her bandages, cleaning her wounds and giving her medicine brought to me such joy that I have never felt before. Becoming a veterinarian was not what I planned, but it is was what I become passionate about.
