Practice Manager

My name is Christie Smith, I have been an employee at Blair Doon Veterinary Hospital since 1997. I started out as a high school kennel technician and loved working with animals. I decided to pursue my veterinary technician degree. I graduated from Colby Community College with a Veterinary Technician Degree in 2005. I live in Rose Hill with my two children ( 1 daughters and 1 son). I have 3 dogs (Gatling, Missy and Mamas). I enjoy taking care of the animals I meet and getting to know the owners who love them.

Hello! My name is Sydney Couser. ! I started at Blair Doon in March of 2024. I am a 2022 Graduate of WSU Tech’s Veterinary Nursing program and a registered veterinary nurse. I am currently enrolled at Wichita State University pursuing a Bachelors in Biochemistry and hoping to become a Veterinarian in the future. I am married to my loving husband, Tyler. I have 4 cats (Popcorn, Saturn, Jonesy, and IO), 2 dogs (Guinness and Miller), 2 snakes (Mo and Peach) and a Tortoise (Roshi). In my free time I love to paint and figure skate! I love my job and I look forward to helping you and your animals!

Registered Veterinary Technician

I moved to Wichita in 2016 and went on to graduate from the Veterinary Nursing program at WSU Tech in 2019. Since then, I’ve combined my passion for animal care with a love for building a home full of personality—shared with my boyfriend and our lively crew of pets. Together, we care for three cats (Charlotte, Hiccup, and Percy), two dogs (Aspen and Ruby), a ball python, and a collection of jumping spiders.

When I’m not caring for animals, I enjoy spending time outdoors kayaking, getting lost in a good book, or expressing my creativity through painting.

Hi, I’m Gabby! I’ve been at Blair Doon since 2021, where I started as a kennel technician and later transitioned to the technician side. I graduated from Colby Community College in 2025, passed the VTNE, and became a registered veterinary nurse. I have two dogs: Atlas and Ares, and two cats: Teddy and Tillie. I recently got engaged to my now fiancée, Dara, which has been an exciting new chapter in my life. I grew up riding horses and was a working student at a local barn, where I trained and showed in dressage and did some jumping, with a strong passion for eventing. I love helping all animals and truly enjoy being able to care for yours!

Howdy, I’m Miya Dunn. I started at Blair Doon in May 2022. Helping animals feel their best and supporting their owners through every step of care is what makes this job so rewarding. When I’m not at work, I’m usually spending time with my own pets - one dog, two cats, and a horse - who always keep life interesting.

Client Care Coordinator

Hi, I’m Janet Benton-Moss. I’ve been with Blair Doon since September 2008 as receptionist. Alias “Crazy Bird Lady”. It is definitely my home away from home. I’ve raised 3 incredible sons of whom I would be lost without. I have 3 very talented grandchildren (1 girl, 2 boys). One of whom may aspire to be an avian veterinarian. In my time off I enjoy my two dogs, 3 cats, and my 13 parrots who range in size from a canary on up to a military macaw, all of whom I consider my OTHER CHILDREN. Of course I also enjoy time spent with my “human” children. My family is my greatest reward and I totally believe what doesn’t kill me makes me stronger.
