Current Events

Our wonderful staff learns all about you and your pets when you
come visit us at the Hospital. We thought it would be nice for you
to learn a little about them as well. So we've created this new
page where you can see what our staff enjoys doing when not
taking care of your loved ones.

Navy "A" school in
February. He is now a
Operations Specialist
Seaman Apprentice
(OSSA) with the United
States Navy, stationed in
San Diego, CA. Liz and

parents!
Dr. Sackman visited Miss Kimberly Graham's class at
Glenhope Elementary school for career day. They talked
about being a vet, number of years of education it takes to
become a vet, and all the cool jobs you can do as a vet.

Using her model, Dr. Malcolm, they did a physical exam
and all the students got to listen to his heart.

Thank you Cindy Miller (Counselor) for asking us to
participate.
Dr. Tracey Sackman once again
completed the Susan G. Komen 3-Day
Walk for the Cure. Her walking
partners for 2010 were Dr. Joanne
Franks (DVSC) and Dr. Dana Liska
(Animal Dermatology). Congratulations
Doctors and thank you for your
continued support of a wonderful
cause.

On May 2, 2011, Dr. Shepherd, along with 16 other Keller
residents, graduated from the Keller Citizens Police
Academy. This is a once weekly evening classroom
experience, over a 12 week period, designed to educate
citizens about how things work in their local police
department. Classroom subjects included; Jail, SWAT,
Dispatch, Search and Seizure, Self Defense, Firearms
Safety (with an opportunity to shoot automatic weapons on
the Police Academy firing range), among many
others.

Dr. Shepherd says, "This was a learning experience, well
worth the time and effort required, and I would encourage
anyone with any interest in law enforcement or public
safety to participate in similar programs your city might
offer."
