Vet students who will be working on animals need as early a start as they can get. Viewing procedures and assisting professionals is the best way to do this. But, they need to do this in a strictly supervised setting all four years. AND the animal's owners need to know the expertise and experience of those working on their animals and give their consent for student primary involvement.
