[@retrogamer_28]

beautiful profession, definitely deserve better pay and support!

[@garymartin1956]

❤❤❤❤ thanx for taking care of the babies.

[@Wwasgud]

I was planning on studying for vet assistant because since i was little i’ve always loved helping animals and had always watched videos on them, now i really wanted to study to be a vet assistant but saw the Salarys and it’s below what i am currently making which is 18.55$ an hr. So I decided to search up for vet tech and realized for everything they so they get payed 23$ an hr here in las Vegas. Sadly they pays are too low😔For the yr of study. It was something i really wanted to do. But anyways just wanted to say thankyou so much for helping these little guys❤️

[@AndreaMartinez-bb4dc]

Me too 😢

[@gsanchez5116]

same, I've been deciding between VT or a physical therapy assistant and I feel more VT leaning but they pay pretty low about 40k a year compared to PTA which is around 60k a year. its the same amount of school too and about the same cost. I'm dissapointed this job is so low paying 😢

[@brittdevon1657]

I really want to be a tech vet..I hate my current job... but I'm making more now than I would a tech. I would like to do physical therapy but I can't decide it.. :(

[@Pinkyy_loves_japan]

Never give up!!

[@madisonwilliams7263]

Exact same boat, I want to be a Vet tech or Vet. I hate my current job and I’m trying to get into grad school to be a physical therapist. Can’t decide if I want to keep pursuing physical therapy or switch to vet tech. I don’t care much about the money, I don’t mind a modest lifestyle as long as I’m happy at the end of the day and fulfilled in what I’m doing

[@gsanchez5116]

omg I am in the same exact boat as you! I am trying to decide between VT and PTA! I seriously don't know what to do, I want to help people but I also want to help animals! The only thing that is very clear is that PT is much more high paying, its so dissappointing that this job is so low paying 😢 I hope you figure out what you want to do, I too am trying to figure out what I want to do.

how many years of collage do you need to be a vet tech?

[@samwhitworth5358]

depends on where you go. I'm doing a 15 month program, but programs vary.

[@102483989]

I think It also depends on which Country you live in.... In Canada its a 2 year (plus practicums) program

[@apdroidgeek1737]

2-4 years. It's associate or bachelor's degree

[@Mermer_Chan]

It depends, I'm doing a 2 uear associates degree which is enough for my state and the states boarding me

Do the technicians do the surgery or is that someone else?

[@berksarl]

Hi! Our veterinarians perform the surgical procedures and the technicians assist in prepping animals for their surgeries.

I only have 16 face piercings and my dyed green hair has roots coming in but have 25 tattoos, can I still be a stereotypical vet tech?
