Fourth Question of the Day October 1, 2013 Does having a degree in interior design, nursing and culinary arts and being the owner of a boutique qualify someone to own a veterinary compounding pharmacy or to make veterinary compounded medications? Should animal owners be more aware of who the makers and owners of veterinary compounding pharmacies are? Should there be requirements as has been suggested on the blog before that veterinary compounding pharmacies be a speciality in pharmacy schools and special licenses be required to make these types of compounded preparations?

Bold businesswoman builds ode to girliness

Sabrina Eaton always has enjoyed wearing different hats -- which makes sense, considering she owns a north Phoenix boutique that features more than 3,000 square feet of accessories and fashion items. But when she talks about wearing many hats, she could just as easily be discussing her varied business interests.

"I've always been very curious about a lot of things," said Eaton, owner of Sabrina's Boutique at Seventh Street and the Carefree Highway. "And I've always loved a challenge. If something interests me, I just go for it."

Her formal education includesdegrees in interior design, nursing and culinary arts. She's worked as an interior designer, a nurse and owner of a medical lab/pharmacy.

In 1995, Eaton and her husband, Robert, decided to capitalize on her medical training by founding Eaton Labs and Road�Runner Pharmacy, which customized medications for people and animals. She still runs both the lab and the pharmacy, and is working to secure a patent for a medication that treats dry eyes in pets.

Three years ago, realizing they had outgrown their quarters, the Eatons designed and built Tuscani Pointe, a 90,000-square-foot retail center that houses the lab, the pharmacy and Sabrina's Boutique, her ode to girliness.
