Brodie Animal Hospital

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked curiously: ‘Why does Dr. Brodie always wave to that old tree outside his clinic?’ Dr. Brodie smiled mysteriously and replied, 'That’s my secret handshake with our resident owl!' The delivery driver scratched his head, but soon shrugged it off, realizing some things are best left unexplained. From then on, whenever he saw the owl perched there, he’d discreetly wave back.

2. A curious delivery driver pulled up one afternoon and asked: ‘Doc Brodie, why do you always greet that squirrel outside your clinic?’ With a twinkle in his eye, Doc Brodie replied, 'Why, he’s my weather forecaster! When he runs inside, I know it’ll rain soon.' The puzzled driver watched as the squirrel scurried into the hospital, then burst out laughing. From that day on, whenever anyone asked about the squirrel, Doc would simply say, 'He knows something we don’t!'

3. One day after school, little Sarah walked into the vet’s waiting room with her goldfish bowl. The receptionist looked puzzled as she said, 'Mama told me you can get fish vaccinations here!' The vet smiled and shook his head. ‘Goldfish don’t need vaccinations,’ he said gently. Little Sarah frowned but then brightened up when a delivery driver came in with a box of treats for the animals. She ran over excitedly, forgetting all about her fish vaccination.

4. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something unusual on the hospital’s loading dock—a small, neatly wrapped package addressed to no one in particular. Curious, he opened it and found inside a tiny note reading: ‘For your furriest patients.’ Unwrapping further, he discovered an assortment of miniature bandages, syringes filled with harmless liquid soap, and a box of lollipops labeled as ‘Pawfect Popsicles.’ Turning around, he saw a neighbor smiling and whispering, ‘Just thought you could use some stress relief!’
