I always wanted to be vet a nurse too and after completing a national diploma and working as a kennel supervisor for 10 years, I eventually got my training spot-totally by accident too! I was 27 and i think age is on youir side as many practices like a more mature and responsible trainee. Keep writng letters and sending out your CV-it WILL happen. Good luck !!</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
