Graeme Slanga

Founding member, chief of security and occasionally, chairman-of-the-"bored", Graeme (aka "G") can usually be found on patrol in and about the Glen. When he is not otherwise preoccupied with converting big newspapers into little newspapers, starring in YouTube videos or teaching small, furry creatures how to run fast and climb trees, he prefers to be hiking, napping and keeping the world safe from FedEx and UPS trucks.

Patricia L. Slanga, VMD

A 1994 graduate of the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine, “Dr. Pat” has spent her entire career practicing in Berks and Lancaster counties. She is a passionate advocate for both her patients and clients, (most of!) whom she proudly considers an extension of her own family. Her professional interests include soft tissue and orthopedic surgery, internal medicine and the care and treatment of exotic pets - all areas for which she continually receives post-graduate training. She is nationally accredited by the USDA, certified to perform PennHIP evaluations and a Certified Fear-Free Professional.

When she is not treating patients, Dr. Pat enjoys the outdoors- either gardening, hiking or kayaking with her best friend, Graeme, an adorably handsome, (though often opinionated) Scottish Terrier. When weather or darkness forces them inside she enjoys curling up with a good piece of chocolate and writing the occasional poem. In addition to Graeme, she shares her life with two cats as well as a posse of furred, feathered, finned and scaled compadres.
