    There are positive and negative aspects to being an animal shelter veterinarian. The most difficult part of being an animal shelter veterinarian is dealing with the behavioral problems of the shelter animals. “Animal Behavior for Shelter Veterinarians and Staff” supports my view that animal shelter veterinarians are required to deal with serious animal aggression and trauma. Shelter animals tend to have more behavioral problems than animals brought into a regular veterinary clinic. It is absolutely necessary to socialize with animals and read their body language in order to be the most successful shelter veterinarian possible.…

    There is a high demand for vet techs and it will continue to grow. Surprisingly there is a 36% estimated growth rate in this field from 2008 to 2018 (Job Outlook for Veterinary Technicians, n.d.). This is partially due to the lack of two year degree vet programs, which doesn’t supply veterinary clinics with enough vet techs, and from people leaving or retiring from their job. Once a vet tech graduates they are almost guaranteed a…
