Benefits of working at AVC Bedok?

Our friendly boss and surgeon Dr Nick has a Membership in Small Animal Surgery. He has a high surgical caseload that covers most soft tissue, oncology and orthopaedic cases. This is the perfect opportunity to impart some of his skills as he loves inspiring young minds. On top of that, you will be exposed to a good variety of caseloads, and with good mentorship available, you will see yourself growing as a clinician. We are a firm believer that continual education is fundamental and we do financially provide for CE programs that you have chosen to participate in. Lastly, we are introducing an induction program for new vets joining our team, to allow your transition into working with us as smooth and comfortable as possible.

VIETNAM - VOLUNTEERS - STERILIZATION PROJECTS

About Vietnam Animal Aid

Vietnam Animal Aid is a vegan animal rights organization that has a rescue shelter and vegan farm animal sanctuary in Hoi An, Vietnam. We are part of a growing global, non-speciesist animal rights movement that works to protect all sentient beings. Our mission is to end the suffering of all species through mass sterilization/vaccination, education, and improving veterinary care across Vietnam. We advocate for a fully vegan lifestyle and for the abolition of all animal use and exploitation.

We had our own international nonprofit veterinary clinic for 3 years before it had to close due to lack of funding. We are looking for professionals who are interested in managing the daily operations and veterinary care of our animal sanctuary while helping to expand into projects such as a mobile veterinary clinic which will help to prevent suffering and the need for rescue before it's created.

For more information, please visit our website: https://www.vnanimalaid.org/ and follow us on our social media channels.

Job Role: Volunteer Vets/Techs/Nurses for Sterilization Projects

VAAR is seeking hardworking and self-motivated volunteer veterinary/technicians/nurses for the reopening of our vet projects on 1 September with a sterilization/vaccination clinic (no critical care facilities) along with house visit service. In 2024, mobile work in rural communities will commence as well.

As a vegan organization, our clinic is also anti-speciesist, and it is likely we will encounter other species that will need our help. Our international clinic nearby that we use for our cats and dogs knows/cares absolutely nothing about our chickens and pigs and this has been incredibly frustrating, so we will be hiring only vegan veterinarians/techs/nurses as both volunteers and full-time staff so that we can finally ensure that all our rescues are just patients, not pets versus "food animals." Speciesism has no place in the veterinary industry. that will prevent animal suffering on a mass scale in central Vietnam.

An experienced international vet nurse burned out on clinical work is ideal for this position. For the six months, we will only be able to have volunteer vets (one-month minimum) with a stipend and housing available, but as we grow, we are hiring full-time, year-round vegan vet staff to carry out the project. No emergencies or on-call needed. Experience with both pet species and avian/farmed animals is vital. We have absolutely no veterinary care for our farm sanctuary animals at this point, so we really need people who can use their experience to treat them as best they can here.

Vietnam's borders are now open and there are currently no COVID restrictions.

Job Description:
A bare minimum of 2 years of full-time work in a Western standard clinic with experience in
high-volume sterilization is ideal. Surgical skills must be top-notch and experience with
injectable anesthesia is necessary. The ability to train our Vietnamese vet intern is vital.

Work weeks will include Monday, Wednesday, and Friday sterilization then Tuesday and
Thursday house calls, mobile clinics, and set-up work as necessary. Weekends will be free to explore the beautiful area of Central Vietnam and the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hoi An.

If you are burned out from high-pressure clinical work with spoiled and rude clients, exhausted from working with vets who also eat animals, this is a great break to work in a clinic that is outspoken for ALL species and appreciates that vets are not robots who should be forced to work until they break. We are not only anti-speciesist but also anti-burnout. It's not a luxurious life and some cases will be extremely frustrating, but we make sure you eat well, sleep well, and take breaks even if we don't have the funding to pay you particularly well.

Preferred:

To apply, please email info@vnanimalaid.org

EAST KALIMANTAN, BORNEO - SMALL ANIMAL/WELFARE/SUN BEARS Volunteers

Veterinary help needed in Indonesian Borneo

Help improve animal welfare in Indonesia by sharing your skills and experience!

Facility and Program Description:
Kawasan Wisata Pendidikan Lingkungan Hidup (KWPLH) is an environmental education center located in Balikpapan, East Kalimantan, Indonesian Borneo. The facility’s goal is to increase environmental awareness and animal welfare. In addition to our animal programmes, the facility has several education buildings, picnic areas and playgrounds. To see a full description of the KWPLH’s facilities and goals visit www.beruangmadu.org or email us.

KWPLH provides a wonderful accommodation in the form of a forested enclosure for 6 sun bears rescued from the illegal pet trade. Sun bears are the mascot of Balikpapan, and many of our current education programs focus on this species.

Our Domestic Animal Program was created in response to the frequent dumping of kittens/puppies at KWPLH. We have attempted to establish a safe home for abandoned animals and a sterilization and adoption program. We currently have 125+ cats under our care as well as close to 30 dogs, and occasionally take care of other rescued wildlife species whenever brought to the center (macaque, civets, slow loris, birds).

The goals of our Domestic Animal Program are:

Experienced Volunteer Vet Needed
We are in need of experienced veterinarian to assist with training and development of our local animal care team. The primary goal is to further train up our team [specifically our local veterinarian] in specialist medical care for our animals, under more or less challenging conditions, and to train our Indonesian animal care-taking staff in mastering necessary skills and knowledge on specialist issues that need frequent treatments.

Other tasks include ideas on improvement of our medical administration and records, enrichment and training programs, and enhancing our adoption programme. There will be work with the sun bears and other wild species, but most time will go to our domestic animals and staff training.

Outlined below is a list of topics that we need help with:

For more details about KWPLH and the veterinary position please email us!

We welcome the help from professional veterinarian in 2022-2023. The position is preferably for 3+ months, but do e-mail us as well if you are available for shorter periods. Free housing is provided at the center, but a small local catering fee is required for meals. A volunteer visa will need to be applied for at a small cost. Couples are also welcome to apply.

Please send end questions and resumes to Gabriella Fredriksson:
gabriella.fredriksson@gmail.com

FOR SALE - VET PRACTICE IN THE KOOTENAY ROCKIES

Is practicing veterinary medicine just a part of your life? 
Tired of the urban rat-race?
Want an outdoor lifestyle? 
Ever considered emigrating to Canada?

The location: 

The practice is located on an acreage on the west shore of Kootenay Lake, nine km north of the village of Kaslo, nestled in the mountain ranges of southeastern British Columbia, Canada.  The geography is dominated by the large, pristine lake and 2000-3000m heavily forested mountains.  The area is relatively sparsely populated, and is becoming a haven for urban refugees. 

The village of Kaslo has a health centre with 4 physicians, a K-12 school, an ice arena, tennis courts and baseball diamond.  A vibrant arts community thrives, with a renowned summer jazz festival on a floating stage.

The real estate:

The practice is located in the bottom floor of a 3 storey, 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom  3600 sq ft home built in 1994.  A covered breezeway containing a hot tub and storage adjoins the house to an 800 sq ft shop with a kennel building underneath. A 1000 sq ft barn with hayloft is situated in the adjacent fenced pasture land.  The buildings are located on a 3-4 hectare parcel of land overlooking a  secluded beach on Kootenay Lake.

Please click here to see photos! photos

The practice: 

Established for 26 years, the practice serves the north end of Kootenay Lake, with the next closest practice 75 km to the south.  The practice is 95% small animal with some potential for expanded equine work in the area.  The clinic has separate bathroom, reception, exam, kennel, treatment, and surgery rooms.  Gas anaesthesia, monitors, new CBC and chemistry analyzers,and an older X-ray unit are in use.  Grooming and boarding facilities are present.  The clientele is loyal and appreciative.  Cases requiring referral can be sent to Washington State University vet teaching hospital across the border.  Two part-time assistants and a family member are currently employed.  Annual gross revenue is in the $600,000 range with a high net due to low overhead costs.

The opportunity: 

The home-based practice provides flexibility in time management, allowing a great work/life balance.  It would enable the prospective new owner to continue working while raising a family and allow the veterinary practice to be a family affair.  The area offers unparalleled and unrestricted access to outdoor recreation, with hiking, mountain biking, ATV’ing, swimming and boating in the summer and skiing, skating and snowmobiling in the winter. The current owner is planning to retire in the area and is willing to assist in the transition. The priority is to ensure that the community has continued access to veterinary services, so sale of the practice with inventory and equipment without the real estate would also be considered.
