You do not have to be a licensed veterinarian to own a vet clinic, but you do have to be a licensed veterinarian to legally treat animals that are brought to the clinic. Vet-techs may work under the supervision of a licensed veterinarian.

No, actually most veterinarians work for other veterinarians in multi-doctor practices. Other veterinarians work at a clinic that is owned by a veterinary corporation (Banfield, NVA come to mind). Many veterinarians work their whole careers for other veterinarians because they don't want the headaches and hassles of running a business as well as being a full-time veterinarian.

Requirements vary by jurisdiction, but all stipulate that individuals pass the North American Veterinary Licensing Examination. This is a computerized 360 question multiple-choice exam. You may also have to pass a state exam.
