Over the weekend the Annual Vet Student Visit returned to Dubbo with 70 eager Veterinary students from CSU Wagga Wagga and The University of Sydney, and were treated to a weekend full of learning about what Dubbo and the region has to offer. They visited the , toured the Dubbo Vet Clinics, had a delicious dinner at with Vets from nearby towns, and industry representatives. Early Sunday they did the early morning walk with the amazing volunteers out there and were even treated to a discussion with the Zoos wildlife hospital Veterinarians. With this all expenses paid trip including travel and accomodation we were able to host them over the weekend and give them some insights into different Veterinary opportunities and showcase our (biased) but amazing region. We can’t wait to see some of them back for placements and fingers crossed living in our region in a number of years to come and helping look after YOUR pets.
A weekend like this certainly could not happen without the support (and funding) from amazing businesses backing it.
