🐾 STAFF SPOTLIGHT: MEET DR. LAURA GRAY-MITCHELL! 🐾

Today’s spotlight is extra special because it’s also Dr. Laura’s BIRTHDAY! 🥳🎂

Dr. Laura has been practicing veterinary medicine for an impressive 23 years! 🩺❤️ If you’ve been a client of ours for a while, there’s a good chance she’s a familiar face!

🧩 Something you're surprisingly good at:
Knowing obscure facts that are absolutely no help in everyday life. 😂
You never know when that random knowledge might come in handy!

🐕 Breed you have an unreasonable soft spot for:
Any kind of Spaniel! ❤️

🩺 Most rewarding cases:
Those difficult medical cases where you finally get a definitive diagnosis AND a good outcome. There's nothing quite like solving a medical mystery!

🎤 Could give a 20-minute presentation with ZERO preparation on:
Allergic skin disease.
"I tend to give an allergic skin disease lecture every day!" 😂

👠 Something you'll happily spend money on:
Shoes!
A girl can never have too many, right?

🐨 Dream animal to snuggle if there were no consequences:
A koala bear!

❤️ Something you wish clients knew about your job:
Just how much work goes into providing the best possible care for our patients — and how many dedicated team members it takes to make that happen.

🥐 If you couldn't work in animal care:
I'd work in a bakery… but I'd have to learn how to bake first! 😂
We appreciate the ambition.

📏 Something that drives you a little crazy:
Things being lined up in order of size.
Apparently organization has its limits. 😂

🐍 Patient your coworkers know you're NOT volunteering for:
Snakes. Hard pass!

🦅 Coolest patient you've ever seen:
A bald eagle!

😳 Weirdest foreign body surgery find:
A nice beaded moccasin!
Someone clearly had expensive taste. 😂

👃 A smell you could identify instantly:
A decaying retained fetus.
Definitely one of those veterinary smells you never forget. 😬

🎉 Now we need your help!
Let's fill the comments with birthday wishes for Dr. Laura! 🥳❤️ And if she's cared for one of your pets over the years, we'd love to hear your favourite memory of her! 🐾

🐾 STAFF SPOTLIGHT: Meet AMY! 🐾

Meet Amy, one of our Client Care Representatives! Amy was a familiar face in Country Club, but moved back to Bear Creek last fall to help us out there. After 30 years in veterinary medicine, Amy has gotten to know a LOT of pets and their people and if you’ve spent any time chatting with her, you probably also know she’s pretty good at making people laugh. ❤️

We mixed in a few important questions with some slightly less important ones…

🐨 What animal would you most want to snuggle if it couldn’t hurt you and wasn’t stressed by you?
A baby koala!

❤️ What’s something you wish our clients knew about your job?

Mister Bigglesworth. 😂

🐴 What species do you have an unreasonable soft spot for?
Horses.

A baby alpaca aka a cria!

😬 What type of patient do your coworkers know you are NOT up for if it comes through the door?

Making people laugh!

🩺 How long have you been in vet med?
30 years!

🤪 What’s one thing that drives you crazy, even though you KNOW it shouldn’t?
When my family doesn’t put something where I think it should go… even though it really makes absolutely no difference where it goes. 😂

👽 What’s the weirdest thing you’ve seen in a foreign body case?
The coolest X-ray before an exploratory surgery was a beaded moccasin — you could actually see the design of the beads clearly on the X-ray!

Tom cat urine.
Unfortunately, some veterinary skills you never asked to acquire. 😂

🚪 What’s one thing that drives you crazy, even though you know it drives you a little TOO crazy?
