Dad and the Vet Tech

#1: Starting the Journey: Becoming a Vet Tech and Why It Mattered


Listen Later

Vet tech training, early career reality, and what new vet techs should expect.

In this first episode, we explain how losing our German Shepherd, Czar, led to choosing the vet tech career path and what new vet techs can expect in school and inside a busy clinic. We cover how to choose a vet tech program, early challenges in the field, and how accreditation and scholarships affect your options.

We break down the difference between vet tech school and real clinic work, share early vet tech experiences, and talk about handling emotional cases for the first time.

You’ll step into the Cram Shack for rapid-fire vet tech study questions and finish with our 2 and 2 segment: two tough animal stories and two positive ones from the news.
