Hi Philip 



I have two cats and the gal I live with has two dogs.   I like the Vet tech school, but I sometimes wonder if I realy want to do a job with all that medical stuff.  I have been thinking  about doing the Vet assistent program.  

I don't like surgey, I don't like the health of some animals life if my hands.  Plus I have not got to the class where we look at x-rays, and puting animals under for surgery.  

So I have some things to think about.   The dream of working with animals is still alive, but how I get there is still a work inprogress. 



Barb

Hi Barb, 
Welcome!  My name is Philip.  I am studying and working in the New 
York area.  I hope you will find this list helpful and will enjoy 
meeting the folks here. 
It's great you are studying Vet Tech.  Do you have any pet yourself? 
Best, 
Philip
