growth/opening

the ENVIRONMENT

• you will be inside and outside 
• will be in farms and offices
• will have to travel 
• education fallacies to teach about sickness 
• and to inform people about animals  

work conditions

• The work conditions all really depend on 
• type of veterinarian you want to be either 
• a large animal or small animal or a vet tech
• long hours and work day but will most times have to
• work nights, get dirty when working with large 

Work conditions ( CONTINUEd)

• animals. You could also work for the government.
• The government needs vets to check the animal's
• health to make sure the naimals are health to 
• get our needs from them.

HOURS

• AT LEAST 8 TO 10 HOURS A DAY 
• On weekends for emergency cases                              
• but if you dont like longs hours or a job that 
• is demanding then maybe try teaching vet school 
• Overtime, weekend, and irregular hours 

what or who were hire you

• Anywhere and anyone would hire you
• because people need doctors for their 
• animals because either they are a helping
• animal because that person has a 
• disability or really bad depression and  

hired

• the human doctor told them to have an 
• animal friend or farms that work for the 
• government to bring the food store eggs,
• milk, and meats. Vets are needed for 
• basically everyone if they have some 

hired

• type of animal friend. You could get hired 
• at a hospital or you could make your own 
• business or hospital any clinic would            
• hire you. A vet is a doctor but for animals 
• instead of humans so the same goes for them

pros for me

• get to travel 
• might get dirty from surgery 
• blood involoved
• lifting heavy things and animals 
• get to help a human's best friend get better

cons for me

• if an animal dies you basically have 
• left the person it belonged to alone or having
• to break the bad news to the fasmily and seeing
• them cry. Letting an animal die cause there is no 
• choice. Putting them to sleep.

cons for people

• Cons- will have to carry heavy things 20 
• to 50 pounds or more. Blood, Cuts, 
• burns, small injuries. Death if kicked by
• a big animal in the right place. Exposed to
• gases, radiation, explosives, & high voltage 

Pros

• will get to work with animals 
• will help animals feel better

why it is a good fit

• its a good fit because ive been learning 
• about medicine since i was little 
• i have always liked to work with animals 
• i feel that if i can save an animal that 
• belongs to someone who lives alone and is 

continued

• alone and for me to save their only 
• friend the one who deosnt care what 
• they wear or how they look that would 
• make me so good inside because im the 
• type of perosn that doesnt like to be mean

contined

• if someone is left out i feel bad for them and yeah i
• mean im not nice nice nice but im not that mean 
• either i dont like to be mean unless there is 
• a reason and it has to be a GOOD ONE. Seeing 
• poeple alone that are nice and sweet and fun just 

continued

• makes me sad. It really dose cause if they
• are a good person and no one will take 
• the chance to get to know them then 
• no one really sees who they are becaue they 
• dont get the try to show poeple 

is this for you?

• you should think of becoming a vet if...
• you love to care for animals
• would be able to handle blood and 
• seriuous things, if you can handle 
• spamming and nutering animals 

shortage

• Also there has been a HUGE shortage
• on large animal veterinarians and the  
• goverenment needs those to check 
• the cows and chickens to make sure their 
• health is good so people can be safe eating

shortage (CONTINUED)

• milk and eggs and meats because if
• the animal isn't in good conditions 
• then neither is the food and that leads
• to diseases which some even can  
• cause death.
