      Hey there holly… you’re already really far ahead but the more experience you get and the more unusual the better… you definitely want experience in a vet surgery but i’m not sure how old you are… you normally won’t be allowed to until you’re 16.
      Zoo placements are fun but hard to get, working somewhere like an abattoir is very hard work and a little sad but shows that you understand all areas of animal work.

      If you’re interested in animal prosthetics why not ask Andrew Fitzgerald’s vet clinic if you can come and watch some opperations just to learn.

      Also having experience with a farrier is good too.

      Basically because so many people apply you need to make yourself stand out so finding weirder places to work is good
