Great program
May 22, 2020by: Eli SProgram: Veterinary Science (Wildlife/Animal Care) Internships
Working with Jasmine and her staff at the Dog Daycare was great. They are super friendly and supportive. The location was right in the heart of a really cool suburb with tons of restaurants to sample. They had me walk the dogs twice a day and oversee the “pack” upstairs. My job was to keep them under control and to settle down the dogs if they got too excited. As a dog owner this was right up my alley. Just being around that many different breeds you get to learn a lot about how they are similar and different.
Great overview of the whole VetMed course

As a freshman VetMed student, this internship was a great overview of the whole VetMed course. We had up close and personal look at different aspects of the practice, and I super enjoyed animal surgery. It was also initially a “testing the waters” experience for me, to determine if I really wanted to be a veterinarian. Since we are exposed to real-world issues and concerns of pet and animal-lovers, I realized that I share the same care on the animals as their owners. I am sure now that I am born for this profession!

Just a quick review of the vet med program of IGS – it is worth it guys. You should try it out. Made friends here, and we did a lot of fun stuff. Great work to the IGS team. Legendary, as Barney says in American series.
