Amy

I have been in the veterinary field since I joined Forney Animal Hospital in 1999.  I took a few years off after 2005 to be a stay at home mom with my two children (Cameron & Caden), but returned in 2009. I am originally from New Orleans, but made my way to Texas in 1999.  I enjoy jogging with my 11 year old Jack Russell Terrier and playing softball. 

Shannon

I have been in the grooming profession more than 20 years and have spent more than 10 years on staff at Forney Animal Hospital as a veterinary technician and groomer. I enjoy curling up on the coach with my 7 year old boxer, Zeus, and watching mystery movies. Being apart of Forney Animal Hospital allows me to spend valuable time with the animals I love!

Vicky

I have been a member of Forney Animal Hospital for several years and I can't imagine working any where else! I love spending time with all dogs and cats that visit us. I am a Kennel Technician, so I get to paid to do what I love.  I have several dogs and cats at home.

Georgia

I joined Forney Animal Hospital in 2007 as a Kennel Technician. I consider every dog or cat I care for as a granddog or grandcat and I treat them as such. I love seeing all my grandbabies periodically and I enjoy spending my days caring for them.  I also spend a great deal of time with my husband and our human grandkids during my time off.

Renea

"Find a job you love and you will never work a day in your life!" As a child I wanted to be a hair stylist, but my passion was for animals.  By being a Pet Stylist I have the best of both worlds! I have been apart of the Forney Animal Hospital family since July 2010. I have three dogs named Rainey, Tootie, and Marlee.
