Hey Erin,
Your daughter may already know that women have outnumbered men in vet school for some years now, but best thoughts:
1. Probably could refuse rabies vaccines (the only ones we were vac'd for in vet school) without repercussion, and
2. There are lay homeopaths, but the road isn't an easy one. So, being a vet first, then training post-grad in the PIVH is the path I'd recommend.
The benefits are a great basis in pathology, anatomy, physiology, and diseases of note for each species, plus a good bit of authority as someone who's gone through the rigors of vet school and THEN went on to become a homeopath.
If I help someone find a human homeopath, I like to send them to an MD homeopath for those reasons.
Well grounded in the basics of health and disease, but then deeper understanding in post graduate training that's literally life changing for most.
Please give her my best. (My mom knew long before I did that I'd be a vet…maybe you see that for her as well)
