They live at home with their 5 year old Yorkie, Nerman and their cutest ugliest singing mutt, Coraline.  Mallori is also a parent to a 5 yr old eyelash crested gecko named Johnny.

When Mallori is not working , her favorite past time is watching Kaleb play football.  They love to go to the movies and hangout with the family.

Brittany Malouf is one of the newest members of our staff.  After moving up to Salt Lake County, she joined our team in July 2011.  Brittany graduated in 2009 with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology from Brigham Young University, but she has been working with animals for as long as she can remember.  In fact, her first job was at a wildlife rehabilitation center in Georgia where she was raised. 

Upon graduating, Brittany had plans to move back to Georgia to attend veterinary school.  She decided to stay in Utah for one last summer to enjoy the camping, fishing and hiking in the mountains, when she met a devastatingly handsome boy who persuaded her to stay.  They are now married, and are the happy parents of a fat spoiled cat named Ruthie.

Kathy Turnbow has spent many years as a client at Sandy Animal Clinic and as of December 2010 became a member of our great staff.  As a kennel tech she is our background support and loves getting to know each pet and their owners.

Kathy has two yorkies, Bella and Lily, and recently said a tearful goodbye to her beautiful 13 year old retriever, Sugar.  As such she has first hand knowledge of the importance of continued relationship with Dr. Edmonds and his staff, from the early years of a pets life throughout those to soon to come years of age related special care that helped keep Sugar comfortable and happy through the last few years of her life.

She is a delighted fan of her grown children, baseball, Ute Football and any trail she can find throughout our famous Wasatch mountains. And of coarse of a record snowfall!
