Caring for the Big Guys

This article that I have read is about veterinarians. A certain veterinarian name Bob Rednour who owns a Large Animal Veterinary Service in Youngsville, North Carolina. They treat large animals such as horses and other large animals.  He graduated from North Carolina State University College of Veterinary Medicine. He has an assistant who he teaches and her name is Meg Johnson. Both veterinarian love to treat large animals, they also like what they do.

A typical day for these veterinarian starts with appointments, most of the time they travel to farms to see animals and treat them. The kinds of treatments they do are wounds, diagnose diseases, and help with difficult births of animals. The kinds of animals they treat are cattle, pigs, sheeps, llamas, goats, snakes, giraffe, etc. They also sometime treat animals that are in circuses.

There are not a lot of veterinary schools in the country people have to compete to get spots in the school. Like there could be 1000 people applying in a school and only 70 can be accepted from that school. So, it like competing to be one of the people to get into a veterinary school. When someone gets accepted into a veterinary school they study for four years to earn a doctor of veterinary medicine degree and they also have to get an undergraduate degree. That’s what the article that I read is about.
