Originally from McBain, Michigan, Billie is one of our receptionists. She just recently started working with us again. However, Billie previously worked with us for a handful of years. She believes the most rewarding part of working in veterinary medicine (besides the puppies, of course!) is learning from the different cases we see. Her family has one dog, a heeler named Gus, who loves chasing everything, four horses, and forty Angus cows. Gus loves food, so Billie's favorite items we sell in the Critter Corner store are the dog puzzles. They help him work out some energy, and he gets the reward of a yummy snack!
