My Life Caring For Other Living Things !

I would like to be a veterinarian because ever since the age of four, I’ve had the desire to protect animals who I feel are weaker than humans because they have no voice. I believe that my passion to save animals stems from having a cat and watching her die at a young age. Not having the opportunity to help her made me think of how other people feel when they lose a pet and if there was any way that animals could be saved. I discovered that veterinarians save animals’ lives through reading a book, which answered my thoughts and gave me the initiative to become one. Therefore, at the age of nine, when my mother asked me what I wanted to do with my life, I told her that I wanted to be a veterinarian. I often find myself answering the question,

I used to tell my friends and teachers that I wanted to explore the medical field because that was what my family wanted me to do. They wanted me to become a doctor as it is a well praised profession that pays extremely well. As I grew older and entered middle school, I realized that becoming a doctor wasn’t something I was immensely interested in. Instead of a doctor, I wanted to become a veterinarian, treating animals instead of people. I’ve become aware of my passion for animals ever since I began having pets: from fish to hamsters to dogs. I decided to focus on animals when I first took one of my hamsters to a veterinarian. I thought that their profession was fun and interesting because it revolves around animals, something that I love and grown up with. Although studying veterinary sciences is difficult and competitive, becoming an animal doctor has been one of my greatest

After graduating high school, I was accepted to Alabama State University and decided to study Biology. I figured that this area would help me study living organisms, life processes and understanding the basic life processes that required different medical provisions. I believed that I would eventually find out if I wanted to studying medicine or counsel people. On May 7, 2011, I graduated from Alabama State University with my Bachelor’s degree in Biology. Then I volunteered at Jamaica Hospital emergency room alongside the medical providers and interact with the families of those who are medically

Way back when I first started college, my priorities were not clear. I knew I wanted to do something that I can be proud of, it was only a matter of what do I really want that will fill my life and complete me as a person. I was in the manufacturing field since I was 19 years old and yet, I felt a hole in my heart. I got to a point where I stop growing as an individual and it became apparent that I wanted to do something more significant. That void became the fuel to pursue something bigger and life changing. I tried to dig deep and really tried to figure out what I want in life and at the same time I started taking classes that can go towards any degree in the medical field. Taking care of people has always been a part of me. I took care of

I picked this career because I’ve always had an interest in it. I am not financially set up to become a veterinary in livestock sadly. It will always be an option to me but for now, I have settled to become a Registered Nurse (RN). I would go to become a CNA, LPN, RN, and then possibly become a NP. Either way I’m still helping the sick. Whether it be animal or human. I enjoy helping those in need.

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

A veterinarian, a professional that treats animal health problems, is a career I yearn to pursue, due to the opportunity to keep any animal surviving, the ability to receive a high salary, and the chance to work with animals all the time. I have been interested in the veterinary field since I was seven years old. When I was seven, I had a german shepherd who was very sick. I went to the vet with her and I sat through the whole appointment. It was extremely hard for me when they told me that she had to be put down. It is very hard to see animals suffer in pain for a long time. Even though putting animals down is tough, sometimes euthanasia may be the easiest and best way to put animals out of misery. Since then, I have had a major interest

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.

From my opportunities while working and volunteering with veterinarians, I’m positive that my decision to pursue a career in the field of veterinary medicine is right for me. I enjoy the challenge and excitement that comes with the cases I possibly might encounter. This field is challenging, but I’m confident that I’m prepared to do whatever it takes to prosper. Through pursuing my professional goals, working and volunteering for veterinarians and animal facilities and my college experiences with animals has solidified my career choice and becoming a veterinarian is the only thing I want to do. Through my experiences, I have learned a veterinarian is not only a caretaker for the well-being of animals; he or she is also a role model, an instructor, and an active member of the community.

I have always been around animals, I’ve lost count of how many pets I’ve had. My pets are my family, and my family has played a huge part in who I am. I’ve wanted to be a Veterinarian since I was little, I’ve always wanted to help animals in need. My cat Gizmo, was found in the middle of a busy road near our house, the box that contained him and his siblings had been hit, and he was the only survivor. The moment he got home I knew what to do, I could tell he was too small to eat solids, so I went with my dad to get a bottle and formula. After weeks of care, we knew he was a part of our family. However, that experience made me realize that the actual medical care of animals would be hard for me, as I care deeply for all animals. Though, a few new options came to my attention during high school.

Everyone has to have a job, meaning that I am going to need one too, when I grow up. Which also means that I am going to have make a choice between the hundreds of jobs available. I thought long and hard over this, and have come to the decision of becoming a veterinarian, or to have some kind of job that is associated with animals. I am choosing this type of job because I care and love animals and when I think of any animal being mistreated or hurt I have to do something, help in some way. Though what I didn’t realise was, that it would be even harder to choose what type of veterinarian, among the several that there are to choose from. I have chosen the top three jobs that I am going to take into real consideration. One of

When I was young I absolutely knew what I wanted to do with my life. I knew for sure I wanted to work with animals, not really knowing what all that would entail. As I grew up I didn’t believe that I had what it took to work with people in dire situations and with medicine, but I wanted to try anyhow to pursue veterinary career. I wanted to work with animals and if I couldn’t be a veterinary then I’d find another job that revolved around them.

I am a veterinarian. Well not yet, but ever since I was a child that’s all I ever dreamed of becoming. I’ve always heard people say, “you will change your career choice at one point of your life”. However, I never have. I am so determined to turn my dream into a reality. The best part about never changing my career choice, is my mom telling me, “ Christina, remember whenever you would call yourself princess of the animal doctors.” I couldn’t put an exact name to what I wanted to be but I knew what it was. The reason why I am so dedicated to becoming a veterinarian, is because I can feel my connection to animals. I’m not talking about being able to have full conversations with animals, that’s crazy. I’m talking about understanding that animals

Ever since I was a little girl, I’ve always known that I wanted my life’s purpose to be caring for animals. It is important for me to reach my goal of becoming a wildlife veterinarian because my dream is to become the voice that animals lack. I want to be able to help endangered species make a comeback and help others back to health. Later on in life I hope to open my own animal

My childhood experiences with animals helped to influence my decision to go into the veterinary science path. My reason in doing so, is significantly due to the horrible emotion of not being able to take care of your pet and not knowing what to do. On my twelfth birthday, my parents gifted me with a yellow parakeet. I promised them i would put blood, sweat and tears into being a responsible owner. I did what any twelve year-old would do, searching up videos on Youtube how to train the bird, groom it and bath it. With a pet of my own, I felt like the happiest tween in the world. Whenever I played my music, it was as
