My 13 year old daughter, Skylar, is wanting to go to vet school also. A couple summers ago she went to visit my SIL in Austin and her vet let Skylar come spend the day in the office. She "helped" with several surgeries and a bunch of check-up visits. She loved doing it and this vet asked my SIL recently why she hadn't brought her back yet. I think she has such a special way about her with animals.... they just seem to sit and listen to her and talk back. This summer I'm hoping that our vet will let her volunteer at his office a bunch. Who knows.... in a few years maybe I can get some pointers from YOU for her.  |
I'm always here in the summer and I LOVE when most of the students leave too! It's quieter and MUCH less traffic around here. It's great!
I started working for a vet a few hours a week after school when I turned 14. i worked for him all four years of high school. Vet experience (volunteering and working with vets) is really important to have when applying. The more hours you can claim, the better it looks.
