Dr. Schaefer's absolute favorite part of working with animals is seeing the unconditional love they have for their people. She also finds deep satisfaction in making a difference in an animal's life by offering the best resources for their health.
At home, Dana has one special companion: Stinky Pete, her 13-year-old Shih-Tzu mix. He may be little, but he certainly doesn't know it!
When she's not at work, Dana loves to travel. Her go-to comfort foods are Mexican food or candy.
A fun and surprising fact about Dana is that veterinary medicine is actually a career change for her; her first degree is in business/management. What always makes her day better is a genuine compliment.
Dana's favorite season is summer. She loves the warm weather and seeing people out and about enjoying themselves.
