About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. It was just another quiet morning at Banfield Veterinary Clinic when a delivery driver pulled up with an unusual package. As he approached the counter, everyone noticed something odd about the crate: it had tiny paws protruding from a pile of blankets. The vet tech carefully unwrapped the blanket, revealing three tiny kittens purring contentedly. It turned out they were someone’s escapees—strays that a kind neighbor had collected and brought in for adoption. The whole clinic erupted into laughter as the story ended with the kittens finding their forever home, Banfield becoming the unofficial kitten rescue center.
2. At Banfield Veterinary Clinic, an unusual announcement echoed through the waiting room one afternoon. ‘Attention please,’ said the receptionist over the intercom. ‘If you’re here for your pet’s annual check-up today, don’t forget to bring along your own leash—we’ve run out of them!’ A few minutes later, a delivery driver walked in with a box under his arm and asked if anyone had lost a leash. Turns out it was his lunch break, and he’d brought snacks for everyone! The clinic ended up having a mini picnic in the garden, complete with pets on improvised leads made from old newspapers.
3. At Banfield Veterinary Clinic, a small dog named Max started behaving oddly whenever a certain delivery truck pulled up. The vet techs watched in amusement as Max would perk up, wagging his tail furiously every time he heard the distinctive engine sound. One day, an elderly neighbor stopped by and asked why Max was so excited. Turned out, the delivery truck belonged to her son-in-law, who always brought fresh cookies for Max on Sundays. Since then, Banfield staff teasingly called him 'Max’s Secret Santa'.
4. At Banfield Veterinary Clinic, a regular was filling out paperwork when he noticed something peculiar on the counter: a tiny pair of reading glasses, left behind by someone who clearly forgot them. A delivery driver happened to glance through the glasses and exclaimed, ‘Hey, I recognize these! They belong to our vet!’ It turned out that Dr. Banfield had accidentally left them there earlier. The regular laughed and said, ‘Guess she’s really into her work—even sees patients from home!’
