Bekah is a receptionist who lives with her husband, son, and a miniature house cow named Sola. Sola is a full blooded Great Pyrenees and is best friends with her little human toddler brother. She enjoys guarding and herding her family, sleeping, chasing lightning bugs and barking at the dishwasher. Along with a deep passion for animal care, Bekah also loves baking a fierce cheesecake, other baked goods, cooking, playing with her wonderful son, the occasional glass of champagne, reading and being outside whenever possible. Even when she first came to LexVetRehab, Bekah immediately felt a sense of family, friendliness, and real connection with humans and animals alike. It doesn’t hurt that she gets to pet dogs and cats all day either.
