Ever since she can remember, Shannon has always wanted to work with animals. On leaving high school she studied animal care at Elmwood College for two years, and on completion of her course decided to look for work in a veterinary practice, where she landed her first job as a receptionist. Shannon's job role there later changed to becoming the practice veterinary care assistant, which she enjoyed a lot but found she missed the communication with the clients on reception. She decided to join our practice as a receptionist for this reason. What Shannon enjoys the most about being a receptionist for BDW is meeting all the wonderful clients and their furry companions and hearing all the interesting stories about them! In her spare time she enjoy days out with her extremely bouncy Lurcher called Pip, who loves nothing more than doing zoomies along Cramond beach.
