Another staff member nominated Dr. Christensen for her role in running the Pet Professor program, stating, \u201cShe goes above and beyond to ensure that the DVM and VN programs are staffed with amazing feline and canine pet professors to advance and enhance learning. Many do not realize that she also takes care of all the feline and canine Pet Professor wellness needs and works with donors to ensure all Pet Professor annual wellness needs are met.
