Shannon Lucus
I grew up “on base” with both parents working as civilian contractors for the U.S. Navy. As an adult, her career centered around veterinary nursing, with a special interest in pet behavior. She has lived in Central Oregon since 2008, and jumped at the chance to become involved with BBCO, allowing her to combine her love of dogs with her appreciation for the military.
