Michaela: „If you know this is exactly what you want, to be a vet for the rest of your life, be prepared to give your all to it. It takes a lot of work both physically and mentally. I dont think many people realise how hard it will be, but it is so rewarding in the end.“

Roy: „I like the challenge this program has provided, teaching me I am capable of achieving more than I ever thought was possible.“
