Are there any entry level vet tech jobs? I was under the impression that the job I'm about to put in for was for a vet assistant job, but I was told last night it was for vet tech. My boyfriends uncle is putting in a word for me, and I've got a resume/cover letter put together, but is there any chance? The uncle said it was entry level, but I don't know, I assume all vet tech job require degrees.I took a veterinary assistant class in 2011 and got a cert for it, but otherwise I'm a customer service loser.

not to be an asshole, but no. you have no chance
>>2026609
LVT and CVT are very different from vet assistance. YOu would need some form of education for the former, the latter is pretty much glorified kennel bitch.
You may be able to find some cheap CVT classes though

You should know by now how much competition there is for pretty much any job involving animals. Everything has to be neatly perfect. No 5 year old training courses, with gaps of inactivity in the middle. If you had taken that course and worked in the field for the last 5 years, your prospects would have been much better. If you don't have all your shit together, neatly wrapped with a bow on top, the best you're gonna get is a job cleaning shit out of kennels and all the other jobs no one else with actual credentials wants to do.
Hey..
My cat has these little pimples or whatever thingies all over her body and they just keep increasing in numbers.
What are these and are they dangerous to the cat?
About a year and half back she was at the vet and got some of these and other lumps removed. And the doctor didn't know either what they were.. which was curious desu.
The cat is 14 years old, if that's any relevant.
The vet did terrible job removing those lumps and pimples last time if you ask me.
You should see another vet and get a second opinion IMO.
Hi /an/ I'm about to buy this weimaraner puppy. Does anyone have some experiences with this breed? Redpill me on them pls.
Look at her eyes... Would you say no to this angel?
>>2026527
Don't know a lot about them but what I do know is I have a cop friend that trains police dogs and I help him by wearing the suit playing the bad guy.
German shepherds and Dobermans run at you and slow down staying on the ground before grabbing you the weimaraners fly in the air hitting you knocking you down to the ground before trying to tear your arm off.
The are quicker to learn and have more stamina.
>>2026532
Oh shit, I was expecting a tender and loving dog, not an cold blooded assassin. But yeah you are right, I've read everywhere that they are intelligent as fuck.
>>2026540
You have to remember that these dogs are being trained for this if not then the would be tender and loving.
So I'm poor as fuck and my cats been having allergy problems since summer. I live in the middle of nowhere and the vet here costs a fortune just to visit. I have some stuff for my other cat that had the same problem and it's like some cream shit you rub on its eye and the stuff isn't expired. I'm afraid of using it though because I don't want to hurt my cat but I don't know when I could go to the vet or get the money together. He sneezes a lot and has mucus around his eyes and nose and it's scaring me a lot. I think I have an antibiotic too.
This sounds more like feline herpes than "allergy problems", especially since both cats have it. What is the cream?
>>2026296
No my other cat had allergies way before I even got this cat I'm pretty sure there's no herpes I hope wtf do I do if it is
Get some local honey and mix some in with his food. Trust me.
Owl poop face thread
I know you guys have those poopy owl pictures!
Angry poop >:(
Seems like everyone is looking for dogs dumped after Christmas. What is better? Male or female?
tl;dr I've only had male dogs, help me like female dogs
And what is better if you already have a neutered male dog? This is all assuming that the dogs are neutered/spayed.
Are females bitchy or divas?
http://strawpoll.me/6398178
>>2026131
dude there really isn't much of a difference, female dogs can be as silly and funny as male ones
just spay her and if you don't PLEASE don't take her to a place full of dogs when she's in heat or pregnant
>have cat since birth
>never went outside
>got out one day
>has been gone for 2 weeks
>stays around the area
>now acts like a complete feral cat
>doesnt even know me anymore
wat do?
There's a a friendly female cat that he follows around.
I let her come in the house, and he comes right up to the door, but bolts away at any movement from me.
Is having the female in here a good idea?
will it help anything?
I would say to use one of these humane raccoon traps to catch her if she won't let you approach her. And then keep her inside until she returns to normal.
>>2026013
Meant him* Catch your own cat and keep him inside.
I wouldn't keep the female cat inside or around him without knowing anything about her. She could have feline aids or some other disease.
>>2026013
I was actually about to go look for such a trap.
I just dont know why hes acting like that.
The female i have in here seems fine and he when i see him out and about, hes always with her. so im thinking it will make him come in to get with her if maybe shes going into heat or something.
What's the best dog, period? No shitty answers saying there is no one best dog for every task. I want the best dog.
Poodle. No shedding and smartest
>>2025937
Of course, the golden mean applies, meaning a mutt between as many breeds as possible is desirable.
I'd say a lab/pit mix.
I had one and he was the best dog ever. Maybe his genes just mixed well and I got lucky but really he was a small black lab with a pitt bull jaw.
He attack my feet what to do ?
And its wild cat i cant touch them
dude what
>>2025568
Throw them out of your house
Does anyone know what plant that is?
>>2025364
Tiny fucking pic, but it looks like a person, not a plant.
probably a fake one, customs will never let anyone get a live plant on a plane
>>2025390
Live plants are allowed, cannabis is not.
how do you get rid of a budgie?
should i just post on craigslist "free budgie to good home", or is there some bird rescue i can give the bird to?
more info: i have this 3-4 year old female budgie. never socialized. never taught to leave the cage. never interacted with other budgies. she's been passed around from family to family, and she finally ended up with me.
i'm always gone, she just sits alone in my room most of the day with no stimulation or attention.
'cause i'm such a shit owner, how can i get her a better home?
>>2024146
Animal shelters take birds.
>>2024146
Poor little girl. Does she at least have a mirror?
>>2024190
budgies are adorable
give to a shelter, and they'll find it a new home. they're not expensive to keep
>clearly the dog was a shit so the previous owner taped its muzzle shut to shut it up
>you wouldn't do the same if a drunk homeless guy with his jaw broken walked into your back yard
This is why the human race is headed for extinction: we care more about dumb creatures than we do for ourselves.
These are baseless fucking implications those who care for animals are the ones who care for humans the most.
>>2023683
You're delusional if you think this guy would lift a finger to help a homeless vet reach the VA or local shelter.
>>2023683
And another.
Sure, it might be that these people aren't donating jack shit. Doubt it.

Do spiders have a sense of smell?
I have a spider friend I named Larry living in the corner above my shower.
Today I farted in the shower and I was wondering if Larry thinks less of me now.
Hello
>>2020683
You'll have to issue a formal apology now.
There is this thing called the Spider Council, you will have to stand up and testify that this act was an accident and it will never happen again. Hope you have big balls bro.
