It takes four years of veterinary college to learn to treat large and small animals. To get into vet school, however, you will usually need to take 3-4 years of undergraduate college courses first.

Does a mixed practice veterinarian have to choose predominantly large or small or can they choose to do half large and small?
This is the beauty of a mixed animal practice - each veterinarian within the practice can choose what percentage large animal and small animal he/she wishes to treat. In some mixed animal practices, there are some vets who treat only small animals and other vets in the practice treat large animals. In other practices, each veterinarian treats both large and small animals, trading off time on the farm (which tends to bring less money into the clinic and therefore brings a smaller percentage on commission) with time in the clinic (which tends to bring more money into the clinic in a shorter time frame). Some practices also have arrangements where each vet works one or two days on large animals then spends the rest of the time covering small animal work.

Are large animal vets in higher demand than small animal vets?
Vets earn more money working with smaller animals rather than large, because it is harder to operate on a smaller animal and it is harder to get an IV in a smaller animal, because it veins are smaller and harder to pin point. Basically everything is harder with a smaller animal, because you aren't used to how small the animal is. I agree, vets that work with smaller animals only get paid more because there are a lot more smaller animals than big animals, ( that vets actually treat). I also agree. It is harder to work on smaller animals. Everything is so much smaller on the them and the tools are big so it is much harder. And they are weaker than big ones so they have to treat them quickly.
