Mixed Animal

Job Description: Parker Veterinary Clinic is a two-veterinarian practice looking to grow. We have enjoyed having students come through for the knowledge they bring us from school and for the real life experiences that can be shared with them here. Student externs are always welcome. The large animal component is mostly cow/calf with a small amount of horses, sheep, goats, swine and an occasional llama or alpaca. We also work with some large dairies in the area. The small animal portion is mostly dogs and cats. We do lots of surgical procedures in both large and small, but the very technical surgeries for small animals are referred. We offer ambulatory service for large animals and also have a haul-in facility that is used very extensively. Externs would assist in all aspects of day to day work. Fall cattle work can be very busy as can the calving season after the first of the year into spring.

Faith Integration: There is no strategy for doing ministry through practice. We believe God wants committed followers of Him in all walks of life. We live our lives daily for Him and take an opportunity God gives us to talk of Him. So honesty, integrity, justice, and kindness are what He requires of us as we walk humbly with Him. These qualities displayed in our daily lives at work and at home give us lots of opportunities to communicate with and interact with our clients and others.

Job Details: Housing is available. Unpaid externship. Students should have boots, coveralls and clothing appropriate for all kinds of weather. We will consider a stipend at the end of the externship. 80% Large animal, 20% small animal.
