Compassionate, progressive, and privately owned new small animal practice in Lafayette, Colorado is hiring a licensed veterinary technician.  Happy Paws Veterinary Hospital is patient focused; always seeing ourselves, first and foremost, through the eyes of our sweet patients.  We strive to make all visits happy and lessen fear and anxiety.  New client exams are one hour and most established patient exams are 40 minutes.  We are known for our expertise performing soft palate surgeries.  Pet parents bring their cute smushy faced babies to us from far and wide.  We also perform many other surgeries including gastropexy, entropion, cherry eye, anal sacculectomy and many more.  Dr. Wellman is the founder and owner of the practice and is eager to mentor and teach her team as well as excited to have another professional on the team to help mentor and train the veterinary assistants.
