I Am a Vet Because…I love interacting with my patients and their significant others. Keeping that bond connected is my life’s passion.
My Favorite Part of the Workday is…When I see a new pet from a previous client whose pet has passed. The happiness is so contagious.
What Inspires Me…The strength and purpose of the Human-Animal Bond. The feeling I get when it is obvious I made a pet or client happy! Also, the satisfaction of solving a hard case after hours of hands-on medicine, client education, and referral consultation.
The Pet I Will Never Forget…Stevie Wonder, a 6 week old Blind Doxie puppy that I was supposed to euthanize, and instead was able to pick from half a dozen other clients wanting the precious pup. He lived a long happy life.
I Could Not Do My Job Without…My clients and staff. They are the real heroes.
Things I Value Most…Honest communication, my clients that understand how hard this profession is and the hard work that goes into saving lives and stamping out disease.
Something People Don’t Know About Me…I am a certified Reiki practitioner, I am a rabid baseball fan, and I LOVE Country western music!
I Relax By…Reading on my front porch with my dogs, and spending quality time in Montana with friends.
