Marty Greer DVM, JD

Hi! I'm Dr. Marty Greer, veterinarian and owner of Veterinary Village, Checkin Veterinary, Checkout Veterinary, and Marshall Pet Care.

I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in 1978 and my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) in 1981 from Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa. After completing my education, I spent three years working in Milwaukee before establishing Brownsville Small Animal Clinic in 1982, initially in Dr. Griffith’s practice building. In 1988, I relocated the clinic to Lomira, where it continues to grow as Veterinary Village.

With a strong passion for pediatrics and reproduction, I opened the Canine Semen Freezing Center, International Canine Semen Bank – Wisconsin (ICSB-WI/IL), in 2002 and became Penn-Hip Certified. My interest in canine reproduction led me to breed the practice’s first litter from frozen semen in 1998, a milestone made more successful with the advent of in-house quantitative progesterone testing.

My husband, Dr. Daniel Griffiths, and I share a deep love for animals, raising and showing Pembroke Welsh Corgis and Danish Swedish Farmdogs. We’ve also raised five puppies for Canine Companions for Independence, a service dog organization.

Over the years, I have contributed to pharmaceutical and nutritional research as an investigator for companies such as Abbott Laboratory, Deprenyl Animal Health, Pfizer, Virbac, and Hill’s Pet Food Corporation. I have also been featured in Veterinary Economics articles for my contributions to the field.

In 2005, I was appointed by Governor Jim Doyle to serve on the Veterinary Examining Board of the Department of Safety and Professional Services, a role I held for eight years. In 2010, I added another dimension to my career by earning my law degree from Marquette Law School. 

In 2019, I became a certified Fear Free professional. Understanding the importance of reducing stress and anxiety in pets during veterinary visits, we incorporate Fear Free techniques such as offering treats like peanut butter and chicken baby food to make exams and testing less stressful for pets, their owners, and our staff.

I remain active in the veterinary community as a member of organizations such as the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), The Society for Theriogenology, the American Association of Veterinary State Boards (AAVSB), and the Fond du Lac Kennel Club, among others. I currently serve on the Board of Directors for the Society for Veterinary Medical Ethics, the American Veterinary Medical Law Association, and the Society for Theriogenology. Additionally, I am proud to be president of the National Animal Interest Alliance.

Recently, I joined Revival Animal Health as their Director of Veterinary Services, where I will be contributing exclusive articles aimed at advancing veterinary care. I continue to educate the pet owner and veterinary communities through book publishing. In 2014, I wrote Canine Reproduction and Neonatology, a 470-page book about everything reproduction which was the Winner of Dog Writers Association of America's Dogwise Best Book Award, and in 2020, I wrote Your Pandemic Puppy, which explains how to raise a well-adjusted puppy during a pandemic.
