iHeartRadio #1: Starting the Journey: Becoming a Vet Tech and Why It Matters
The story behind choosing the vet tech path, the loss that sparked it, and what the first steps into school and clinic life really look like.
In this first episode, we talk about how losing our German Shepherd named Czar led to choosing the vet tech career path and what new vet techs can expect in school and inside a busy clinic. We cover how to choose the right vet tech program, what early challenges look like, and how scholarships and accreditation shape your options.
We also walk through the difference between school and real clinic work, share early vet tech experiences, and talk about what it’s like to face emotional cases for the first time.
You’ll step into the Cram Shack for rapid-fire vet tech study questions and wrap up with our 2 and 2 segment: two tough animal stories and two uplifting ones from the news.
If you’re a vet tech, a student, an animal lover, or someone exploring the veterinary field, this episode sets the tone for what’s ahead.
