    Animal Tracks Veterinary Service LLC
   was established in 2006 when Dr. Lenay Kumlin and Dr. Erica Bass
  
joined forces with the intent of providing Vernon County with a full service
   diagnostic and client oriented companion animal veterinary facility.


 
   
   Dr. Lenay Kumlin received her doctorate in Veterinary Medicine
   from Michigan State University in 1997 and moved to Viroqua,
   Wisconsin to start practicing veterinary medicine. She worked in
   a mixed animal practice for 9 years working with dogs, cats, horses,
   cows, sheep, goats and the occasional alpaca/llama. Although she
   enjoyed large animal medicine, her interest shifted to focus on
   companion animal medicine and surgery since she has partnered
   with Dr. Erica Bass to form Animal Tracks Veterinary Service. She
   is a member of the American Veterinary Medical Association and
   and the Wisconsin Veterinary Medical Association. She is licensed to
   practice veterinary medicine in Wisconsin and Iowa. Dr. Kumlin is
   is also certified by the AKC as a Companion Dog Evaluator. She has
   a young family and enjoys spending time with them. She is active
   in many organizations outside of veterinary medicine including the
   Viroqua Area Rotary Club, Vernon Women Investors, Viroqua
   Partners and 4-H. Dr. Kumlin is very interested in dog obedience and
   will be very involved in programs in the Training Facility within the
   new clinic. She has several pets at home, including her Labrador
   Retrievers, "Glory" and "Grace" and her Weimeraner "Boag". 



  
        
   Dr. Erica Bass received her doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from

   Wisconsin to start her career in veterinary medicine. She is interested
   in companion animal medicine and partnered with Dr. Lenay Kumlin
   to form Animal Tracks Veterinary Service in August 2006. She

   around the house. Dr. Bass is very active in the English Lutheran
   Church in Viroqua. She is interested in internal medicine, especially
   geriatric evaluations. In the future, she would like to incorporate
