Abstract

Are you bored in the everyday grind of practice? Are you frus­trated with your current boss and how things are managed? Is one of your goals to be a business owner? Are you ready for another challenge in life? If you find yourself answering yes to these questions, you are ready to start taking the leap. Being a large animal veterinarian is a truly rewarding, exciting and challenging job. With any job there comes some frustrations, but by being a business owner you can have a direct impact on what frustrates you. Yes, you will have more and different responsibilities as an owner, but you can make your work-life balance whatever you want it to be. It is never too early to start brainstorming about business ownership.
