Happy last day of RVT month, everybody! Last on our RVT list is our superhero Danielle! (and ONLY last because she didn't hand over her write up pointers in a timely manner) 😉

This lovely human graduated from school in 2020 but knew from a VERY young age that her love for animals would carry her into a career and we are SO happy it brought her to us!

When she is not greeting our next appointment with a smiling face, she can be found doing a number of other things behind the scenes. Filling prescriptions, monitoring animals under general anesthesia, providing comfort to animals staying in house for care and running bloodwork are just a few other tasks a RVT takes on while here.

Despite Danielle loving all of our wild and beautiful pets, she has a true soft spot for all things exotic, especially reptiles. (so anytime you are here with your skink, snake, gecko, bearded dragon) know your beloved little friend is being cared for by one of the best!

When she is not here she can be found horse-back riding, hiking, reading and playing D&D with friends.

Thank you for all that you do, Danielle. Your care is exceptional and we are so lucky to have you on our team at GAH!

Tiffany has been a RVT since 2015 (graduated from Northern College in Ontario) and in the same year she moved here to NS, joining our team as a new technician until August 2020. At that time she said 'see yah later' to us, gaining another few years of experience at Wolfville Animal Hospital, before coming back here in May ☺️

Tiffany has an unwavering dedication to her profession. She rocks every aspect of our clinic life here at GAH and we are so grateful for her knowledge and passion. She truly aims to make every pets visit happy and as stress free as possible, and thrives with nursing care, blood draws and catheter placements, anesthesia and making ill patients feel better while they are here with us 🥰

You can truly see Tiffany in her element as an animal lover by looking at her photos! That smile says it all. She lives and breathes all things animals, which is why we know without a doubt your beloved pets are going to be loved and cared for like her own. 🥹

Outside of work Tiffany loves to read, and loves being outdoors.
She does group walks with her bestie and their 8 dogs on quiet trails, beaches and in the woods, anywhere they can run and play!

When asked what we love most about her, the conclusion was pretty much everything. From the light and fun mood she brings to each shift, her caring nature, the humor she has any minute of the day, the way she helps without question and her of course, her knowledge!

We love you Tiffany, and we are so grateful you choose to be here with us each day. Thanks for everything you do!

RVT superhero of this sunshiny Monday is Stephanie T!
Steph graduated RVT school in 2018 and has been with us ever since🥰She has wanted to be a veterinary technician ever since the wee age of 6, so we know without a doubt this is where she wants to be and how much she loves her career choice!

Her knowledge, experience and mega watt smile bring a comfort to owners, knowing their precious fur babies are in the best hands possible when coming in for their appointment.

Through the week Steph can be found in the surgery suite assisting the veterinarian with pre-scheduled or emergency surgeries, in the pharmacy filling the many daily prescriptions that are called in by clients, in appointment rooms providing the vet with intake information for your appointment, or helping in our wildly busy reception area. She knows that it takes a village to make a clinic run smooth and she is always ready and willing to lend a hand for whatever task needs help.

When not at work she shares her home with the love of her life (and trouble child) Eevee (pictured below), along with her squeaky pigs Fritter and Timbit.

Thank you for being YOU, Steph T. We appreciate you and are not sure what we would do without you.

Look at this handsome boy Arlo who came to visit us tonight. He was such a well behaved boy for his appointment this evening. He loved his treats and won the heart of all the ladies at the clinic. 💙

Another RVT to bring into the spotlight at Greenwood Animal Hospital ☺️
Meet Jaclyn. She has had a passion for animals from a very young age, beginning with 4-H and pony club. Her very first job was a stable hand and has even worked as a wrangler in Alberta!

Jaclyn leads with her heart which is why we love her. 🩵 She knows animals make the best of friends which is evident here at GAH, because every animal absolutely loves her (and so do we!)

She has been a RVT for over 10 years and with us for over 3. The majority of her career she thrived in emergency medicine and still her favorite part of the job is (you guessed it) emergency surgeries, working under pressure and inpatient care.
No matter the situation, you can count on Jaclyn to keep a level head and perform her job seamlessly.

Jaclyn is a cheerleader and advocate for every single animal that comes our way. No matter the situation, she will be in their corner making sure they get what they need. Being a voice for all animals is where she excels and she cannot imagine doing anything else 🥰

Outside of work she is busy doing all outdoor activities! Her hobbies are running with her two besties (Aria and Loki), dog sledding, horseback riding, hiking, kayaking, camping and traveling the world with her husband Adam.

Jaclyn, your extra large heart and skill set are what make you an exceptional RVT and we are so grateful to have you each day at Greenwood Animal Hospital. You truly are outstanding !!

Sweet little Isabella came to see us today for her puppy vaccines🥰 She quickly stole the show in the office and we had a hard time containing our excitement over her.
Isabella was a true champ for her needles, with lots of snuggles and treats she barely knew what was happening.

Puppies require several rounds of vaccinations beginning at 8 weeks of age. During the time a puppy is nursing, they will receive maternal antibodies. These maternal antibodies then circulate and are meant to protect the puppy from disease until they are old enough to receive vaccines from their veterinarian 😊

Have a great weekend, Isabella! Thanks for snuggles and kisses 🥰

Maui wants you to know that Greenwood Animal Hospital will be closed Monday October 14th 🦃 for Thanksgiving but we are on call for any client emergencies that may arise, all weekend.

From the tips of her ears and all the way down to her toes, this adorable turkey wishes you nothing but the safest and tastiest holiday weekend. And as a reminder to all, please keep bones/carcasses away from your pets 🙂

Today we are introducing Kailan, she is another one of our superhero RVT's here at Greenwood Animal Hospital.

Kailan came to GAH right after graduating from tech school. Prior to going to Dal Agricultural College in Truro, she worked as a vet assistant, and it was those co-workers around her who encouraged her to follow her animal passions with continued education, hence her now status!

Her passion and dedication to each and every animal that comes through our doors is what makes her such an invaluable member of our team. Over the last 8 years here at Greenwood Animal Hospital Kailan has been able to perfect her trade but has found her niche is in animal behavior and educating owners how to work with animals towards a happy household.

Outside of work she has an abundance of interests such as writing, video gaming, random adventures and is musically inclined with a 5 year post secondary education as a classically trained singer (we promise to let you know if she ever decides to set up a performance here to show us her singing talents!)

She has 2 very beautiful fur babies at home, Magnus and Mister and they are both loved deeply 😻

She is boisterous, empathetic, insightful and extremely passionate about her work here at GAH and we are so happy she is a part of our team. Thanks for all that you do, Kailan!
