I position myself so I can receive the most possible pets by the patient!

Greeting my team members every morning!
Q3
Any recommendations you have for fearful patients to help ease their fear
Putting my head in their lap is a game changer for those patients.
Q4
What is your favorite treat?
I love all treats equally, however if I have to many they make me sick, so I try to limit my treats during the day to a few trainer treats!
Q5
How’d you get into dental therapy?
My humans did not want to leave me home alone all day and they said I had to be productive. The rest of the story is my life at the office.

Favorite music?
Snoop Dog!
Q7
What’s your idea of a perfect vacation?
I actually love going to work, it’s like a vacation for me because every day is different and fun. You never know who is going to be coming through the door to visit. I get to make new friends, and it’s always a surprise to see my old friends too. I also like hanging out with my pack, er team, because they’re really fun too!
