veterinarians are doctors for animals
some work with farm animals and theirmain customers are farmers
others work with special animals such as racing horses or military dogs
a few even work with wild animals
like other doctors most veterinarians focus on some part of medical care
most veterinarians work with domestic pets
and animal has medical needs throughout its life
when very young it is important to get certain injections to prevent some diseases
it is also quite common to operate on the animal to make it unable to breed
as the animal gets older it also needs more care just like people
accidents of course may also occur and these are also treated by veterinarians
Gandhi once said that a nation can be judged by how its animals are treated
many Americans would agree with that statement
