That depends on alot of factors including the laws in the state or country where you live and the details of the felony. The governing body that oversees veterinary technicians would have the final say. In many instances though, no you would likely not be able to get credentialed as a veterinary technician with a felony.

Most states will not allow a person with a felony, much less a drug felony, to be credentialed as a veterinary technician. Most veterinarians will not hire someone with a drug felony either as they keep controlled substances on the premises.

You probably can. However, let's be honest - don't discount that a prospective employer may not be comfortable with your background - especially if you might have access to scheduled drugs or narcotics used in the practice.

That will depend on the laws of the specific state you are wanting to work in. In many states you cannot work as a credentialed veterinary technician if you have been convicted of a felony.

Many pharmacist will not hire anyone with a felony and it is an automatic denial for certification.
