Flanary Veterinary Clinic Paducah, KY

Bitsy is the most adorable 13 year old Pomeranian that has ever lived. When she was a little pup weighing only a pound at about 4 months of age, she had serious health problems and continued to go into hypoglycemic comas. At that time, her vet, Dr. FLanary, took her home with her every night from the clinic to keep her alive. It did not take very long for Bitsy's vet to fall in love with her precious personality and to become her permanent Momma! Bitsy rides in her Momma's lap everyday with her to work at the Flanary Vet Clinic. She has also been known to go shopping in several place in her Momma's purse! Bitsy is a princess and enjoys all the finer things in life like pink plush pillows and beds, gorgeous clothes for all seasons and occasions ( made by her personal seamstress, her Grandma), the last bite of her Momma's yogurt and most importantly being carried around! Bitsy is also very photogenic and has won many photo contests and been in many magazines!! But don't let her 4 pound frame fool you! She is the boss of her 85 and 45 pound sisters. She relishes in eating her Hill's Science Diet Light, to keep her figure, one piece at a time as her sisters only dare to watch. Bitsy's trachea collapsed last summer and she was rushed to the University of Tennessee School of Veterinary Medicine for emergency surgery to place a tracheal stent. Her momma, the vet, became just momma as she watched her baby recover in intensive care. She takes medicine everyday to help her breathe but is making it! Bitsy and her Momma have a special bond. Bitsy has been that special someone to get her Momma through everything and that makes her a very special little joy!!!

Maddie is a 5 year old Bernese Mountain Dog. She chose her Momma, aka Dr. Flanary, when she was a little 8 pound puppy!! She kept climbing into her Momma's lap and would not let her check out any of the other puppies. Needless to say, she rode home in her Mom's lap and has been with her ever since!! Maddie works at the Flanary Vet CLinic everyday and she comes on emergencies too as her Momma's protector!!! Maddie loves babies- baby ducks, goats, pigs, and even 2 legged kids! She makes a great babysitter. She also loves to lay on her back, eat CET dental treats, and go jump in the pond on a hot day on the farm when her Momma's not watching. She also enjoys riding in her Momma's big red truck and visits with her grandpa. Maddie was born with degenerative joint disease so it is a good thing her Momma is a vet. She eats Hill's j/d food, and takes glucosamine chondroitin and anti-inflammatory medicines every day to keep her healthy.
