About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One night, a delivery driver pulled up to OakVet Animal Specialty Hospital and asked the receptionist, ‘Do you guys ever close?’ The receptionist smiled and replied, 'We’re open twenty-four hours, sir.' The delivery driver nodded, relieved, then noticed something on his truck’s dashboard—a small dog peeking out from under the seat. 'Oh no,' he groaned, 'looks like I picked up a hitchhiker!' The receptionist laughed, saying, “Welcome to OakVet—we see all kinds of patients here!”
2. One morning, a delivery driver arrived at OakVet Animal Specialty Hospital with a crate full of supplies. As he unloaded boxes onto the back porch, he noticed something odd in one of them—a tiny pair of old spectacles, seemingly abandoned amidst bandages and syringes. Curious, he picked up the glasses, only to hear a faint voice whispering, ‘Where am I?’ Startled, he looked around but saw no one else. Turns out, an elderly poodle named Mr. Whiskers had accidentally left his specs there during his last visit. The rest of the staff laughed it off as just another OakVet tale—except for Mr. Whiskers, who insisted on wearing his new glasses until they broke from too much sniffing.’
3. One day, after hours, an intern noticed something unusual in the hospital’s waiting room. A small dog kept staring intently at the ceiling, as if trying to understand some invisible message. Curious, the intern approached and saw nothing but a dusty light fixture. The dog tilted its head, then suddenly barked sharply—just as a delivery driver walked in with a box marked ‘medicine’. Turning to each other, they both laughed: the dog had been watching for his evening snack!
4. One afternoon, a delivery driver left a crate of treats on the hospital's porch. No one claimed it, so staff started giving them out as special rewards for well-behaved pets. Soon enough, word spread around town that OakVet had these magical treats. A regular would drop off extra bags of kibble, and neighbors brought their dogs in just for a sniff of the legendary goodies. Even the vet’s cat, Mr. Whiskers, started showing up uninvited but always behaving impeccably—probably hoping for a treat too.
