Ok, im 15, but if i wanted to know if its possible to get a job at a vets office?
I get my license in a couple months, and a vet lives really close by me around the corner, but i was wondering if they hired regular people? not just vets.
Im really good with animals, exotic&domestic, I have been raised with them, and taken care of every kind of animal that you can think of like, elephants, lions,tigers, bears, dogs, cats, birds,snakes, monkeys, lemars,squirrels, kangaroos, ect ect ect ect., the list goes on forever... . My familey works in the circus, but right now im home going to school, bc my mom always wants us 2 have an option of staying home,or going on the road.
So i was just wondering. I cant explain to you guys on how much i know about animals. Adults call me all the time and ask for my advice, and help. Also every few weeks I go work for my godmother who owns circuses and zoos. And she makes me work with the exotics bc i know so much. And i really want to work for a vet!

It depends. Maybe you should ask the vets around you, not the people on here.
Not trying to be mean, mind you, just practical.
I work with vets and have for years. You can usually work in the kennel at age 16. That's where I started out. Also, some vets may take volunteers. Just ask around, explain to them that you are experienced with animals, and see what happens.
Working with a veterinarian is very rewarding. I hope you find something to do. Good luck. =]

The vets office I work in hires high school age students who are good with pets as kennel. The kennel job includes cleaning and help handling the pets as needed. Where I work you would be properly trained on how to deal with animals. This would be a good position especially if you are looking at going into the veterinarian profession.

it is not puzzling in any respect. you in simple terms ought to verify you have the time to like it and the money for vet charges and nutrition. i've got seen those issues (uncertain what they are referred to as) yet they are for animals who're no longer able to apply the back legs. It holds the back legs up and has wheels so as that that's able to stroll around. If the proprietors are not prepared to paintings with the cat then they probable never enjoyed it. Giving it a loving abode may be the suitable subject for it.

for insurance purposes, you generally have to be 18 years of age. try volunteering at your local animal shelter or humane society. they are always in need of help. :-)
