Dr. Brian Redmond

From an early age, Dr. Brian Redmond and his dogs would watch countless hours of Animal Planet and were enamored by the wildlife expert, Steve Irwin. Growing up near Boise, Idaho, he was deemed the neighborhood’s favorite and most trusted pet sitter, which strengthened his interest in animal compassion. This advocacy continued with him into his teenage years as he repaired a bird sanctuary, helping him become an Eagle Scout.

Dr. Redmond holds a Bachelor’s of Science degree from Brigham Young University—Idaho in Organismic Biology. During his undergraduate education, he shadowed local veterinarians and interned with Yellowstone Bear World. It was here he gained a unique experience working with black and grizzly bears, wolves, deer, elk, bison and countless other species. This wide exposure and accumulation of animal care led him to Washington State University, College of Veterinary Medicine. (GO COUGS!) There, he completed his Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine with professional interests that include anesthetic management, dentistry, and cardiology. Dr. Redmond and his wife are proud parents of four children. He is teaching his children to love and care for animals. In his free time, he likes to kick back and watch a good college football or basketball game, or engage in a competitive card or boardgame with friends and family. He is also taking recommendations for family outing and date ideas.
