![](./images/menu2/treesspring.jpg) 09:38:41 #Vettechnician My mom was a single mom of 2 going to school and working full time, yes I am married, BUT if I am going to have a family, I want to have my priorities straight |
09:38:39 Wander why couldn't you have one more P so I could keep you?

09:37:31 Ally 💜 The shelter said she needed 3 more boosters and a rabies vaccination. Im just looking for a good vet currently |
09:36:55 #Vettechnician Plus the other reason why I didn't want to be a vet, is because I pulled out $4500 in loans for my degree, and it was 3-years(a year of prerequisites) vs $100,000+ in loans. I am also almost 30, so I want to start having a family, so I didn't want to be in school for 8+ years and have kids, I know it can be done, I just didn't want it |
09:35:59 It depends on where you live, for example in WA the Rabies Vaccination is given at 12 weeks old and there is no need for a booster of that vaccination. So def check your state/Country laws and requirements for it |
09:34:20 Ally 💜 Okay cool ^.^ I was curious since my puppy needs her rabies she isnt old enough yet though |
09:33:24 Fawn Rabies vac is part of the last set of vaccines for one year so typically around 4 months old |
09:33:13 #Vettechnician 16-weeks for the first dose, then in 2-weeks(or 3) they get the other |
09:32:27 Ally 💜 How old does a puppy need to be to get the rabies vaccine? |
09:32:03 Ah i see, thats intresting. |
09:31:16 #Vettechnician Where I live, I cannot give rabies |
09:30:36 Hummer @Helix, I probably would have looked into that career more, but where I live they only make around $17/hour. |
09:30:17 Helix, you dont give rabies vax? Im not even a tech yet, just a pet nurse and ive given plenty of rabies vaccinations under the supervision of the licensed vet in the room lol |
09:29:55 #Vettechnician A vet tech is basically everything, in a human hospital, but in one person |
09:29:09 Ally 💜 I think the hardest thing right now is finding a good vet. Majority of them are super busy and cant take appointments for months on end. Boomer went to a low cost clinic because it would have been months for them to see him if we booked with a vet clinic |
09:28:57 #Vettechnician But someone told me about vet tech 10 years ago, and I changed my path. As a vet tech, you do everything the vet does BUT 4 things: perform surgeries, prescribe meds, diagnose animals, and perform rabies vaccinations. OTHER than that,, vet techs DO it all. For a 2 year degree, you run the labs, the exams, monitor anesthesia, fill meds, etc |
09:27:27 Hummer @Helix, what made you decide to become a vet tech instead? |
09:26:36 #Vettechnician I wanted to become a veterinarian |
09:26:08 Hummer What I find ironic is if there is a shortage of vets, why are so many vets discouraging young people from becoming a vet? That happened to me. Multiple vets told me don't do it and ultimately made me give up pursuing that career. |

Lately I've been winning "Top Breeder - Warmblood" awards. How did I get there? What are the qualifications to place and do better? Also what are the qualifications of top breeders for small/medium/large stables? Do I have to breed horses of certain ratings/a certain amount of them?

Hi Sage, To get an award you have to breed better ratings than others in your comparison size stables. It improves your chances if you have fewer low rated foals. So you can free range them before end of year to get a better score. If you are breeding for coulors or bravery it may be disadvantagious as you tend to want to keep a foal for other characteristics. You choose the way you want your yard to go. 🙂
