I really enjoyed working at Rockwood Hospital For Pets. I worked there through a Health Youth Apprenticeship at my school for my senior year. The reasons I enjoyed it there was because of a few things. First of all, animals are always happy to see me. They could have had a painful procedure done just a day ago or hours ago and no matter how much pain they're in, they want to greet people and have people pet and play with them; working there really didn't seem like work or a job. The second reason is that I believe animals are good way to get rid of stress. For example I could have had the worst day at school and I would get to Rockwood and go back to see who the patients were for the day, and play with them for awhile and I would instantly feel a lot happier, and just forget about what ever happened. They last reason I enjoyed a Vet. Hospital is that the animals really don't complain, aside from the occasional bark or meow, they're pretty good sports about whatever happens. When I moved down to La Crosse I had to leave Rockwood behind which was very sad, I always think about it and wish I still worked there. The people who worked there were outstanding, Dr. McCarthy, Heidi, Kathy, Amy, Bobbie & Kate, were very compassionate people and were great to work with! Maybe I will have to apply at Vet. Hospitals down here and hope for the same.Clinic Pets
