About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. It was an unseasonably warm autumn morning when Dr. Hernandez noticed something peculiar outside her clinic. A delivery driver kept stopping by every few hours, leaving packages that seemed suspiciously heavy for just pet supplies. Curious, Dr. Hernandez followed one of the packages and found it contained a crate filled with tiny furry creatures—chinchillas, she discovered later. Turned out, a well-meaning neighbor had mistakenly ordered them thinking they were dog treats! The whole town ended up laughing over the mix-up, and now everyone knows not to leave online orders unchecked.

2. It was just another quiet afternoon at La Cuevo Animal Hospital when the intercom buzzed with an unusual message: ‘Attention all staff and patients—your vet is now taking telemedicine consultations from the waiting room!’ The receptionist looked puzzled but shrugged it off. A few minutes later, a delivery driver walked in, complaining that his dog kept trying to diagnose him over video chat instead of letting him work. The vet eventually emerged from the waiting room, wearing a sheepish smile and muttering something about needing a break from Zoom calls. Everyone had a good laugh—and no animals were harmed during the incident.

3. It was a typical Tuesday night at La Cuevo Animal Hospital when a delivery driver pulled up to the back door. As he opened the crate for the day’s supplies, a strange whiff of cilantro wafted through the air—an aroma that had never been part of their usual inventory. As the delivery driver sniffed curiously, a friendly vet poked her head out from behind the counter and asked, ‘Did someone order some spicy Mexican cuisine?’ Turns out, a neighbor had accidentally swapped the cilantro for the antibiotics. Everyone got a good laugh—and a free sample of fresh salsa.

4. It was a routine Saturday morning at La Cuevo Animal Hospital when a small puppy bounded into the waiting room, its eyes wide with wonder. The vet techs exchanged glances as the little dog approached the reception desk and began sniffing intently at the old wooden bench. Suddenly, the bench emitted a soft hum and lit up like a Christmas tree. The vet techs rushed over, but before they could react, the bench whispered, 'Woof! Just checking in!' Turned out it was an ancient talking bench that had been there since the hospital's founding. Everyone laughed, including the little puppy who thought it was the coolest thing ever. That day, La Cuevo became famous for more than just great care—it also had a chatty bench.
