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 small wooden box with no label or markings. Curious, he picked it up and found inside an old photo album filled with pictures of dogs from decades ago. As he flipped through the pages, he saw a picture of a beagle named ‘Buster’ wearing a Santa hat on Christmas Eve. Smiling, he thought it was just another quirky thing about Banfield until… he heard a bark coming from behind him. Turning around, he saw Buster himself, wagging his tail and wearing that very same hat. The delivery driver laughed, realizing it must’ve been one of those legendary Banfield pranks.

2. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Banfield Pet Hospital and noticed an unusual sight: someone was leaving through the staff entrance carrying a large bag. The driver watched curiously as the figure disappeared into the darkness. Curious, the delivery driver approached the empty lot next to the hospital. Suddenly, from behind a bush emerged a sleepy-looking cat with a tiny backpack. ‘Hey, little guy,’ said the driver, ‘where did you get that?’ The cat yawned and replied, ‘Just picking up some late-night snacks for my friends!’

3. Late one night, a delivery driver pulled up to Banfield Pet Hospital and noticed an eerie howling coming from inside the building. Curious, he peered through the window and saw only shadows moving in the dim light. Suddenly, a small dog ran out, wagging its tail frantically, and dashed towards the door. Startled, the delivery driver opened it wider, revealing… nothing but empty rooms and sleeping staff. Turns out, it was just a neighbor’s mischievous pooch playing tricks on everyone.

4. One day after work, a delivery driver stopped by Banfield Pet Hospital for coffee. As he approached the door, he heard a tiny voice crying out from inside: ‘Where are my toys?’ The delivery driver looked around, puzzled. Then he saw a little dog peeking through the gap in the door, holding a chew toy in its mouth. 'Oh,' he smiled, 'you're lost!' The dog nodded and pointed towards the waiting area. Sure enough, there was a pile of toys abandoned on the floor. With a laugh, the man picked up the dog and carried it over to its rightful place. From then on, everyone at Banfield knew that whenever they found a lonely toy, they could just ask 'where's my friend?'
