I haven't myself, but a friend did a placement in Costa Rica and said it was an amazing experience!

My experience was amazing! I couldn't have asked for a better group of people to work with. The vets and staff were so welcoming and friendly, and I felt like I learned a lot during my time there. It was definitely a rewarding experience, and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in veterinary medicine or animal welfare.

Hi everyone, I’m seeking some advice - my dog (8yrs old) was attacked several months ago by another dog and after she became depressed and anxious.

My mom doesn’t want to spend money but it just hurts me so much to see the behavior - she walks around in constant circles, looks sad, seizures, hides under the bed. Any advice would be appreciated.
