She has a dog (Ella) and a cat (Ting) from the Caribbean and a dog from Colorado (Yogi).

Dr. Johnson graduated from Colorado State University’s College of Veterinary Medicine and completed a post-doctoral master’s program at the University of Minnesota. He has practiced clinical veterinary medicine for over a decade, working with dogs and cats, wildlife, and large animals. In his spare time, he volunteers with various search and rescue groups in Washington State and can often be found working with his search dog “Shuksan” to find lost people in the woods.

Dr. Wendy Karle, an Ohio State University alumna, has been a practicing veterinarian since 2005. Her wide-ranging experience reflects her ability to provide a varied and thorough approach to veterinary medicine. Dr. Karle's role as a caring guardian to her family, which includes two children, five dogs, two cats, and a hamster, is a testament to her dedication and love for animals. Her extensive experience in the field is a crucial asset to our team.
