"I’m Dr. Sylvalyn Hammond, a veterinarian, mom of two human boys and one very handsome rescue pup, and wife to an Irish immigrant (mail-ordered, obviously 😉). I grew up on a dusty cattle ranch in southern Arizona, studied at the University of Arizona (#beardown), then went on to veterinary school at Texas A&M (#gigem). These days, I practice medicine in beautiful Charleston, SC. I’ll see any animal in need, and I believe vet care should be accessible to all. My biggest passion is educating pet parents so you can feel confident giving your pets their best lives. 🐾💙"

Doggy Dojo will soon become the Enlightened Pet Behavior Podcast!

I'll be back soon with some new episodes, but also a new name!! Nothing else is changing, except maybe we'll talk about more pets than just dogs (although Dogs will stay the main focus).

Make sure to follow so you don't miss the new episodes!

Dr. Lauren Vaughan is a veterinarian at Best Friends Animal Hospital in Valley Village. She’s been an animal lover since she was born, but has been practicing veterinary medicine since graduating from the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine in 2019. Her mission is to help pet parents meet all of their dogs’ and cats’ mental, physical, and emotional needs without sacrificing their own. Recognizing that pet parents feel overwhelmed trying to figure out what information online is trustworthy (and  stressed out trying to remember everything their vet says during a visit), Dr. Vaughan launched comprehensivecompanionship.com as a one stop shop of reliable pet parenting information. And together with her friend and colleague, Dr. Alexis Traylor, later created  the @knows2tail instagram account for ongoing bite-sized bits of info. When she’s not in the clinic, or working on these projects, you can find her at home with her husband and two cats or thrift shopping.
