Should I become a veterinarian?

I became interested in becoming a veterinarian ever since I got my dog 5 years ago. When we took our dog to the veterinarian's office I seen what they do. They clean their ears, check their eyes, mouth and take their temperature, Its kind of like a physical. They also help the animals by bandaging them up when their hurt. Knowing this made me think about helping other animals because I know how much a pet means to a family. If my dog was sick or hurt I know how it feels when there in the care of a vet, reassuring. They care for an animal like it was their own.


What I know about becoming a Veterinarian is that there are all different types. Some for their eyes, and other types, there just like doctors, but for pets. A Vet doesn't only take care of cats and dogs, they take care of wildlife too.

My essential question is should I become a Veterinarian? on the way to answering this "BIG" question there are some foundation questions.
What type of veterinarian would I be successful at? Is this the right career choice? What are some of the procedures do Vets do when performing surgery? Also how much do they make yearly?
