250, a VET is someone who has served in the Armed forces. Veteran. That is all the requirements that is needed

Um, Conan, I think he means "vet" as in "veterinarian"; an animal doctor.
There is the AVMA, the American Veterinary Medical Association. They may have a webpage...yes, they do: http://www.avma.org/ Vets generally open their own businesses, or go in partnership with others. They're very much like M.D. doctors. I think the degree they get is D.V.M., or Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. I would imagine they would incorporate as well into veterinary clinics.

But don't be disheartened - If you are really into this but can't face the hard slog and high grades necessary, there are plenty of other good jobs with animals. I have met several people who have jobs they love - as veterinary nurses. You don't need to have a degree, you assist the vets with all the day to day animal care and treatment, and you learn while you're doing the job. You can also then take classes at a later stage if you want to become better qualified. I would recommend you look into this, or other jobs with animals (boarding kennels, animal rescue centres etc) if you feel you can't face the years of study to be a vet. Also, if you want some experience, go to a local animal rescue place and volunteer to do a couple of hours a week helping to take care of the creatures they have rescued - they will be really grateful for the help, and you will learn a lot about handling and caring for animals which will help you when you come to apply for jobs. ------------------ Time is an illusion.
