Blog 12: Third Interview Questions

1. How many dogs and cats are housed at this facility?
2. Who are the veterinarians that attend these animals?
3. What are the animals first checked for health wise when they are admitted?
4. Approximately how many senior dogs and cats come through this facility?
5. Out of those dogs and cats who are seniors, how many of them are diagnosed with cancer? 
6. What are the different forms of cancer that these animals have been diagnosed with?
7. Have any of those animals ever been diagnosed with Insulinoma? If so, how many?
8. What kind of treatment does this shelter offer for the animals that are admitted with cancer?
9. What is the best way to treat stage two Insulinoma in senior dogs?
10. Is it common for owners to surrender their animals because of health issues they can't handle?
11. How does a veterinarian or owner know when it's time to put their pet to sleep?

I decided that it would be better to put my essential question more towards the end of the interview that way I can acquire some background information and slowly work my way up to the essential question. 

Blogg 11: Mentorship 10 Hours Check

I don't currently have a mentor right now. I thought I was able to get one at the animal clinic that I volunteered at a while ago, but I called four or five times and they still haven't gotten back to me. I was, however, able to do seven hours of volunteering time at that clinic. On the 17th of November, I volunteered at Monrovia Dog and Cat Hospital from 7am-3pm. I also volunteered with For the Love of Animals Dog & Cat Rescue at an animal adoption at the San Dimas PetCo for four and a half hours on that same day.  

In regards to finding mentorship along with somewhere to volunteer, I going to go check up with the animal shelters that I sent in volunteer applications for tomorrow. Hopefully, I will be able to get a volunteering position at one of the shelters.
