While March 8 is the recognized date of International Women's Day, we choose to celebrate every day!
Recently, Dr. Erin was celebrated for her achievements within her veterinary profession. She started her career at Centennial Animal Hospital many years ago as a Veterinary Assistant and pursued her dream of becoming a Veterinarian. Even though her name is followed by "DVM", she will always lend our RVT's and assistants a hand- no matter how dirty the task. She is knowledgeable, compassionate and always willing to help!
Our team of women is like a family! We support, respect and encourage each other!
It is a few days late but Happy Birthday to Sophie!

If your pet requires an appointment after 5pm, we have made it a little easier for you! We currently offer appointments on Wednesday evenings and beginning the week of March 24 we will also be offering evening appointments on Mondays!
We are hoping by extending our hours 2 evenings a week, we can better serve our clients who are unable to come to daytime appointments.

Last week Santa visited and took pictures with pets in an effort to help raise money for the Oscar Fund.
With this fundraiser, we were able to raise $490!
Thank you to everyone who came and donated!
Tomorrow is the day! Santa will be here from 8:30-11:30am to take pictures!
Didn’t get a chance to call and book a time for pictures ? Drop by anyway!
Remember the white door?
Sadie recently visited the team behind that white door for a treatment room tour, nail trim and blood draw (no blood is seen in this video).
We are doing our best to keep the snow cleared but it is falling fast! Please be careful if you are out on the roads!
The history of Centennial Animal Hospital and Gravenhurst Veterinary Services
Centennial Animal Hospital was established in Bracebridge in 1981 and, along with Gravenhurst Veterinary Services, was purchased by Dr. Mary DeCaire in 1982.
In 1983, the hospital was moved to the current location for the original building at Fife’s farm. Originally the practice catered to both large and small animal clients but has been exclusively small animal since 1995. Dr. Claire Duder joined the practice in 1987 and became a partner in 2003.
Over the years we have grown from one veterinarian and one employee to a practice team composed of over 35 doctors, technicians, client services representatives, patient care workers, groomer and maintenance staff.
A major renovation in 2000 tripled the floor space of Centennial Animal Hospital and in 2004 Gravenhurst Veterinary Services also greatly increased office size with a move to a much larger building, in the same heritage complex, at the Gravenhurst Train Station.
For over 35 years Centennial Animal Hospital and Gravenhurst Veterinary Services have been caring for the pets of Muskoka and Drs. DeCaire, Duder and their entire health care team look forward to many more.
