I wish I were a DVM. So wonderful to see someone finally, openly, requesting an employee who is not a “...left wingnut.” Like.

[outofsalt]

I too wish I were a DVM! Do you, by chance, have a Holiday Inn Express?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

I am not making fun of you, your request just reminds me of my favorite TV show ever:

[Labyrinthos]

I recently hired a young attorney, who grew up in Fairbanks/Anchorage (military parents). He’s a conservative Catholic, with all the right stuff. I have high hopes for him.

[Trillian]

Wishing you luck! I don’t know any.

[abigkahuna]

There might be someone out of Bellingham or better yet, Lynden WA, from Whatcom County.

Contact any of the DVM schools in the USA. Take your pick.

They are listed on the internet.

[Gay State Conservative]

Is this the type of thing you might send to various vet schools? Don’t know if that type of thing is ever done.

[Jonty30]

Can you change the weather about?

I’m a southern kind of guy

Good luck. Alaska is beautiful.

[Jonty30]

Can you change the weather a bit?

I’m a southern kind of guy

Good luck. Alaska is beautiful.

[OKSooner]

Contact some vet schools in conservative states, like for example at OSU (Oklahoma State, not Ohio State) in Stillwater?

Others also. The plug for my own state's vet school is of course obligatory, even if they are the aggies.

How about Michelle Oakley, Yukon vet?

[Chuckster]

Can you change the weather a bit?

I moved here from Hawaii. Weather is not as bad as you might think. It's a big state and we are in the extreme Southeast. Still, it ain't Florida.

There really are so few of us veterinarians, about 130,000 in all of US, Mexico, and Canada. There are more attorneys in Boston, I believe.

And that includes all new grads to old dinosaurs like me. I would write to AVMA and then to veterinary colleges. Biggest classes to graduate are likely Texas A&M, and Ohio State. You would have to lobby hard. Student loan debt is a killer. You might try a creative public service group. I’m just spitalling here, good luck.

[Mr. K]

I think it’s a fantastic idea!

Maybe a semi retired freeper?

Anyone need a senior level computer systems engineer up there?

[drSteve78]

Another thought, try contacting the Iditarod group, and ask for a list of their veterinary staff and volunteers. You might find a young crazy that wants to move.

“I recently hired a young attorney, who grew up in Fairbanks/Anchorage...with all the right stuff...”

Well, ask him if he knows somebody!
