JBF receives intern vets from both abroad and India. They are exposed to the different veterinary practices from in house to rural, small animals to large animals as well as wildlife. The ideologies of the interns help in exchanging ideas and sharing of knowledge with special concentration on treatment, management and animal welfare.

Laura Bates, 5th-year Veterinarian student and Rhiana Orchard Witchell, has successfully completed their 19 days of their internship programme at JBF(INDIA) TRUST, Guwahati, Assam from 24.08.2014 to 11.09.2014. They have volunteered at two Spay/Neuter Centres of JBF and also attended our Rural Veterinary Practice at villages. During their entire period of the internship, Laura Bates and Rhiana Orhard Mitchell was found punctual, hardworking and inquisitive.

Alice Balard and Sylvain Hawawini two French Veterinary students from National Veterinary School of Maisons-Alfort in Paris who spent their fourth year training period in with JBF India at the beginning of the year 2012. They have spent four weeks in the JBF centre in Guwahati (Assam) where mostly followed the large animal cases with Dr Smriti Rekha Gogoi. They also got the chance to visit Guwahati’s ABC centre for rabies control and stray dogs sterilisation.
At the end, they have expressed their overwhelmed response for JBF. They also got the chance to give treatments to an elephant and a camel.
Indeed, they were confronted with cases that they had never encountered in France and they were able to gain practical experience in surgery as the vets allowed them to perform a lot of castrations (pigs, goats and dogs).
