If I had one job to choose in this world it would be a veterinarian specializing in equine. When I was little this was what I knew I wanted to grow up and do, even knowing I would have to go to school for what seemed to be forever to receive my doctorate. Since before I was walking I was riding horses, which lead into the rodeo route when I turned eleven and was the main focus point my whole life and if there’s passion I had, it was rodeo. The environment and passion rodeo provided me made me want to become a vet so much more; I wanted to know everything possible. When I was about sixteen is when I realized how much I wanted to pursue being a veterinarian. I was on the rodeo road hard core at this point in my life, it even took me out of normal high school to be home schooled while on the road. My main horse was getting hurt on a regular basis which led me to develop a close relationship with a vet who was an equine specialist.
When you’re a vet you can work for yourself and if it is something you enjoy and want to have the knowledge and willingness to learn, you will be successful by the knowledge and the fact that people will trust you with their animals that they hold close to their hearts. The hours may be long and tiring but when you enjoy your work the hours don’t seem as long as they are. When someone puts their trust into you, you appreciate that and don’t want to let them down. Its not just an animal to people, it’s like a child and for some people they can have up to half a million dollars invested. The work environment is so amazing as you are inside and outside helping what you love, for me its horses. When you walk into the office to advise you’re there for your appointment your greeting with smiling faces to make you comfortable knowing you’re in good hands. You have places to unload and place your horses while your waiting so they are not uncomfortable if they are in pain or sick.
