⚾ Happy Boss's Day, Dr. Kira Kautz!🍫

At Westfield Small Animal Clinic, each day is something new,
And we're thankful to have a boss as wonderful as you!

With a caring heart and a listening ear,
You make even the toughest days, easier to bear.

From cats and dogs to surgeries galore,
There's always another patient coming through the door!

Exams and X-rays, bloodwork and meds,
And a million little things running through your head!

Through ringing phones and a hectic day,
You somehow keep the craziness at bay.

With compassion and patience in all that you do,
It's easy to see why we're so thankful for you.

We may not say it enough, but we hope you know,
How much we appreciate you more than we show.

So here's to the boss who does so much each day,
We hope you feel appreciated in every way! ❤️🐾
