Hey there! Hi there! How do ya do?

My name is Beth and I’m part of this crew!

 
I started at the bottom, cleaning the kennels

Kept learning and learning and got my credentials

 
I can help you up front or give your pet meds

And you’ll know it’s me by my Converse treads!

 
I bring pazzazz everyday, I’m the clinic jewel

I’ll be back full time in 5 years, after vet school

 
In my spare time I chill at home with my Danes

Or I’m out on the trail holding the reins

 
That’s enough about me, thanks for reading my bio

Thanks to my coworker for writing this rhyme!
