Banfield Pet Hospital

About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver noticed something peculiar in Banfield’s parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and tied with twine. Curious, he picked it up and found an old calendar inside, dated several years back. As he opened the calendar page by page, each one showed different animal photos from around the world—cats posing like models, dogs playing soccer, and even a penguin doing yoga. Confused but intrigued, he took it upstairs to show his colleagues. Turns out, it was just an old promotional calendar someone had accidentally left behind. Everyone got a good laugh, and from then on, whenever anyone saw him walking down the hallway with that calendar, they’d tease him about being ‘the Banfield travel agent.’

2. In the quiet aisles of Banfield Pet Hospital, a regular customer found something unusual one day—an oddly shaped bone nestled among the dog treats. Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be an old, weathered wishbone from some long-forgotten holiday turkey. The vet joked that maybe it was a lucky charm for good health, and soon the whole clinic was talking about ‘the luckiest pet hospital in town.’

3. Early one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up to Banfield Pet Hospital and noticed something odd—an abandoned umbrella standing upright near the entrance. Curious, he picked it up and saw a note inside reading, ‘Forgot my umbrella again.’ Turns out, it belonged to a regular who always left it here. The delivery driver laughed and thought, “Maybe I’ll leave mine next time too.”

4. One day after work, a delivery driver parked next to Banfield Pet Hospital and noticed an odd sight: a small dog peeking out from behind a bush, watching him curiously. The delivery driver smiled and called softly, ‘Hey little guy, what are you doing here?’ The dog barked once and scampered off into the hospital’s open door. Inside, everyone stopped what they were doing to greet their new unexpected visitor—a tiny, curious canine who’d just decided that today was his first day of work. The end.
