Why Cleveland is a Great Place to Study Veterinary
Cleveland is a great place to be a veterinary professional because Cleveland is a city that loves animals! The Cleveland Metropark Zoo has more than 3,000 animals and has won international awards. It's Center for Zoological Medicine is a great place for veterinarians, vet techs and animal caretakers to intern or work. Cleveland Ohio Dog Advocates rescues special needs dogs from shelters around the country. And the City of Cleveland provides its residents with low-cost spay and neuter service for dogs and cats. This service, the fact that leashed dogs are welcome in all city parks, and the creation of T.R.E.A.T.S. off-leash dog park all point to a city full of pet owners with animal health services needs.
