What are the responsibilities and job description for the Veterinary Technician position at Lake Mills Veterinary Clinic?
Are you a Veterinary Technician possibly looking for a change of scene?
Sure, The Lake Mills Veterinary Clinic is Wisconsin's first Low Stress Handling hospital...but we've been on the floor with puppies, touch training, treating, and burrito wrapping for decades before we earned the designation. We have a full-time behaviorist on staff, an outdoor exam room for those shy dogs and nice days, and 1/3 of an acre fenced-in where we teach classes from puppies to beyond basics and rally. (and for Dr. Stork to take his 7-minute nap at noon) We host 23 free community service lectures on topics from 911-Or No Big Deal, interpreting dog and cat language (that'd be a work in progress) to dealing gently with clients and pets near end-of-life. We break-bread, listen to music and go fishin' with our clients, and we treat them like friends...because they are. Lake Mills is a rapidly growing small town with an 1100 acre lake, three breweries, a winery, a night club, and a dozen churches...and enough sinners to keep 'em all full.
