About Our Hospital
Passionate About The Health of Arnprior Pets
Our hospital was established by Dr. Chris Appleby in 1981. The original clinic was located in a small house across from the shopping mall.
In March of 2000, as a millennium project, we relocated to a larger facility closer to the downtown area. To celebrate the opening of the new facility, we created our logo – a child pulling a wagon with a dog and cat in tow! The logo was created to symbolize Dr. Appleby's children, her pets, Duffy and Max, and our commitment to family. Our waiting room even has a special "dog house" for children to play in when they visit the hospital.
We are a family-oriented facility and enjoy visits from all members of your household. Big, small, four-legged or two, our veterinarians and support staff cherish the opportunity to get to know our patients and the people they love. Meet Our Veterinarians Meet Our Team
Our Pet Care Philosophy
At Arnprior Animal Hospital, we believe in treating our clients and their pets like family. We aim to greet every client by name and work hard to create a warm and down-to-earth environment. Our approach reflects the values of our community: compassion, loyalty, and sincerity. Our goal is to provide modern medicine and thoughtful, unhurried care, delivered with kindness and clarity.
