Yes, but they go to their own medical schools, not the same one as physicians. Veterinarians specifically attend a college (or school) of veterinary medicine that is accredited to teach veterinary students.

Yes, a veterinarian in private practice (seeing dogs/cats/horses/cows/etc. owned by private citizens) must have a State license to practice veterinary medicine within that State. To maintain the license, the vet must actively practice veterinary medicine and complete a specified amount of continuing education every two years.

Yes, veterinarians must go through intensive training prior to starting work as a clinician and must continue to train and update their skills and knowledge throughout their working careers. In the United States, the minimum college requirement is seven years - three years of undergraduate and four years of vet school.
