small-animal practice
Yes, a veterinarian that treats both small and large animals is in a mixed practice. However, this type of veterinary practice is becoming less common as more people have either cats and dogs or livestock and the small family farm is dying out.
Patrilineal System
There is really not a gender gap related to pay in veterinary medicine. In fact, more women are enrolled in veterinary school than men (in some veterinary colleges over 80% women). They are given the same salaries as men with similar experience. In general, men do earn more than women in veterinary medicine because men are more likely to be practice owners and women want to raise a family/take care of their children, so they often take part time positions or even drop out of the veterinary work force for a period of time.
Until the industrial revolution, it was common (even usual) for family members to participate in the "business" of the head of the family. This included children and sometimes wives, and was true for smiths, barbers, farmers, rulers, and most other fields of endeavor. With the industrial revolution, over time the practice became less common but never died out. Children still do work on their parents' farm, even operating farm machinery. It is less common for family members, especially young ones, to labor in family commercial fishing or medical practice.
