Lori Miller, Client
Care Manager
 |
Hello friends of
Care Animal Hospital! I'm Lori, a Client Care Manager here at the
hospital, and this is my family: Greg, my husband, our daughter
Carson, son Cameron, and of course, our four-legged "kids" Sam
and Hooper. |
|
Sam is an 8 year old
female Jack Russell Terrier (or as we like to call her, our Jack Russell
Terror). We've had her since she was a pup, and some days we wonder
if she will EVER grow out of her puppy stage. She definitely makes
up for her small size with a large dose of attitude. Her
fearlessness has gotten her into a pickle more than a time or two in her
life. And, she's as speedy as she is bossy. She has won first
place each year we've entered her in the Greyhound Rescue's "Hound
Dawg Derby" at Mile High Greyhound Park. |
 |
Hooper is the newest
addition to our family. She is, to our best estimation, a 1 year old
Border Collie Mix. She was found in an abandoned house having been
left alone after the owners moved out. Aside from being
undernourished and quite dirty, she was in pretty good shape. |
 |
Greg, who was given
the honors of naming her, chose Hooper because he said her spunk reminded
him of his favorite movie character of the same name (a long forgotten
movie about a stunt man played by Burt Reynolds, in case you're
curious). Given her circumstances, we are amazed at how gentle,
trusting, and obedient she is. She loves riding in the car, going to
the dog park, and sneaking into the kids' beds after they've fallen asleep
at night. |
