In her down time, Shelley enjoys riding on the motorcycle and playing with her dogs. Shelley joined Winterset Dental in 2019 and is hoping to make Winterset her permanent home!
SHADOW
Therapy Dog
Shadow is an Aussiedoodle two year old. She is gentle and calming to our patients and loves to greet you. You will likely see her come in briefly and say hi or greet you at the door. However, if you are not comfortable with our therapy dog, just let us know. We will keep her back in the office away from you.
