PERSONAL OPINION OF CAREER🎉🙌
She likes that she knows she is helping an animal who might be in pain or helping an animal who might become in pain. She dislikes when people come in with animals but the owners wait to long and now she cant do anything to help the animal.
The easiest thing she does is vaccines and check-ups. One of the hardest things to do is trying to diagnose the illness,surgeries , and when owners doesnt want their animal so they ask for euthanasia.
Some of the challenges of being a vet is when the owners complain about the price of the appointment when really the money goes to all of the vaccines and instruments and other supplies for the animals.
