Dr Holst's interest in dogs as a hobby, and dogs as a career in research, eventually led her into veterinary school. She graduated from Colorado State University in 1977 and has been in small animal practice since that time. Reproductive problems and breeding management have continued to be her specialty. Holst's Sarabande Shelties provided the opportunity to become involved in showing and breeding dogs, which has continued to be a most enjoyable hobby. The sixth generation of Sarabande Shelties now lives happily with the author. Phyllis participated as a lecturer at the Colorado State University short course for breeders and veterinarians on canine reproduction during the two years it was presented. Most recently, she contributed a chapter on vaginal cytology to the second edition of Current Therapy in Theriogenology (W.B. Saunders Co.) See less
