Show Notes
Dr. Bridget Breslin grew up in Westchester County, NY, and made her way to the Midwest during undergrad where she attended Purdue University. At Purdue, she obtained a degree in Animal Sciences. Following graduation, she landed in Ohio for veterinary school at The Ohio State University. She graduated from there in May 2022 with her Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine. She is now currently working at Fulton Animal Hospital in Canal Fulton, Ohio as well as serving on the board of Pig Placement Network. She is very passionate about caring for pigs just as dogs and cats are cared for. She has an Instagram account called The Piggy Clinic which is what caught my eye and made me want to reach out! She has a pig named Penelope and a dog named Sophie.
