Becoming A Veterinarian

Decent Essays
I am interested in becoming a veterinarian because I want to be able to devote my life to helping animals. I have always enjoyed doing what I can to help animals or learn about them. I believe that if I become a veterinarian I could make a difference in animal's lives and their owners. I believe that every animal deserves to be taken care of with love and understanding just like a person. We have fourteen animals at home. Two of which have had serious health issues the last few months. I have helped give medicine, clean up blood, and I've even helped my dog during a seizure, so she wouldn't hurt herself. Along with having a strong stomach I am also particularly strong in science and math. These things help me to keep building onto my dream

    My interest in the veterinary field began when I was six, when I arbitrarily announced I was going to be a veterinarian simply because I loved animals. Since I was quite young at the time, I was unaware what the job actually entailed.

I was undeterred when I realized just how much time that needed to be dedicated to school, and instead, it motivated me to take challenging classes in high school and to pursue a job at an animal hospital.…
