Hello! I am a highschool sophomore who is between becoming an OT and a large animal/farm vet. My main goal long term is to be able to afford my own horse (I really want to gentle a horse from the BLM) and that's about it. I currently do a work-to-ride and help out a shepherd quite often so I'd love to work with sheep and/or horses.
Anyways, what are the steps to become a vet, and why are there so few schools that can get you a doctorate. what programs should I be looking into to become a large animal/farm animal vet? and after becoming a vet how feasible is it to own a horse and care for them?
