Almost ten years ago, Valerie Hanks moved to Eagle with her husband, Ron, and their two cats and two dogs from Connecticut.  Almost immediately they joined the Eagle Animal Clinic family as clients and patients.  Then, a couple of years later, Val was asked to join the staff of Eagle Animal Clinic and became part of a wonderful “work family” as a part time receptionist.  She continues to believe that she “has the best job!” working in the front office at Eagle Animal Clinic.  Helping our clients when they need their pets to be seen by the doctors in good times and bad, has been both rewarding and fulfilling.  She believes that each new client, each new pet, becomes a member of the Eagle Animal Clinic family and is glad to sometimes be the one who gets to take the information that starts it all.  Time has passed and now they have just Tess, their wonderful German Shorthair Pointer.  She’s an old girl now at 12 years, but she still has the heart of a puppy.
