Dr. Mary-Elizabeth Ellard hails from Atlanta. She has conducted research in both prosimian primate and equine behavior. After fifteen years in private practice, she answered the call to serve its local shelters.

She currently works with Jazzy Paw, Inc. and Spay-Neuter Vets providing high-quality-high-volume-spay-neuter for rescues, shelters, and low-income clients. Dr. Ellard’s other passion is history.

She and her husband Bill live with a pampered shelter cat named Annabelle.
