Junior Large Animal Vet
$345 | Grades 2-5 | June & August
Jr. Large Animal Vet Camp gives kids in grades 2–5 a hands-on introduction to the world of large animal veterinary care! Campers will explore what it’s like to care for horses and goats while learning age-appropriate vet skills in a fun, supportive environment.
Throughout the week, campers will practice basic veterinary techniques such as observing animal behavior, checking vital signs, learning grooming and hoof care basics, and understanding nutrition and daily health needs. Through demonstrations, games, and close-up animal experiences, kids will gain confidence while discovering how veterinarians help keep large animals healthy and happy.
This camp encourages curiosity, responsibility, and compassion as campers learn how proper care, gentle handling, and teamwork play an important role in animal wellness. No prior experience is needed—just a love for animals and a willingness to learn!
