veterinary office work.

Post by molsonsnobunny »

Does anyone here work in a Veterinary office, specifically as an assistant?
Im asking because i'm in the middle of applyng for college for Veterinary assistant, I find myself getting excited and then really scared. I know I just need to get over it and go for it. I get really anxious and worried that i'll fail, your supposed to be able to assist in things like giving medication, making overall assesments, restraining animals, weighing them, helping in the lab with blood work and such. I'm scared that I wont be able to resign the animals, Ive had an out of control lab, and currently have a sweet tempered german shepard mix both big, but I could handle them both great. I try to tell myself if i can handle them, I can probably handleother animals, but I still worry. Same with the medication, I actually worry I will give it wrong or couldnt handle a needle right.
I was wondering if anyone works in this field or a related feild, and how they find it/?
