A small animal vet is someone who takes care of pets. To be more precise, small animal vets diagnose diseases and other health problems in animals like dogs, cats, birds, etc. They also might give vaccinations, prescribe and administer medications, perform surgeries, set and treat broken bones and fractures, treat wounds and euthanize extremely ill animals.

Just like any other job, you'll need a certain amount of education. To become a small animal vet, you are advised to earn your bachelors degree. Once you get that degree, you must then complete four years of veterinary school to earn your Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Some colleges that have the best vet programs are,
- University of California
- Cornell University
- Colorado State University
- North Carolina State University
-Ohio State University
- Texas A&M University
Although internship/Apprenticeship is not required, some vet students will do a one year internship after graduation to fine-tune their skills and to help them advance more rapidly within the field. To become a vet, you must have your Doctor of Veterinary Medicine, or D.V.M, from vet school. Then, you must take a state licensing exam before practicing, though, you'll have to retake the exam if you move to another state.

Unlike a Livestock Veterinarian, a small animal vet doesn't have to travel to a farm or ranch to work. A small animal vet will work in a building- like an animal hospital or neighborhood clinic- which means most of your time will be spent indoors too. Just like many other jobs, being a vet comes with some dangers. There's a chance of an animal biting you, scratching you, etc. You could also be harmed by things like surgical tools and x-ray equipment, so it's important to follow all rules and regulations. Being a vet isn't easy. Most vets will often work long and erratic hours each day. Many also work nights and weekends too; most vets will rack up around 50 to 60 work hours in a single week.
