At Newbury Animal Hospital, we know that animal care does not begin and end within the hospital walls.
That is why we strive to support our community and the human-animal bond through participation in community endeavors. Among our projects and initiatives are:
NAH acts as a drop-off location for donations to the Newbury Pet Fund for Elders, a program to assist seniors who are having financial difficulties. We offer our special thanks to Carol LaRoque, who initiated the program.
Merrimack River Feline Rescue and NAH have a long history in the community. We have long provided medical and surgical services as needed as well as regular donations. You will often find kittens who are up for adoption available for a bonding experience in our reception area.
Oxygen Mask Raffle We are very proud of a recent endeavor, suggested and spearheaded by our esteemed team member, Michelle. Her idea was to put together a raffle to provide our fire department with life-saving oxygen masks designed for pets. The initiative went so well that we were able to supply Newburyport, Newbury, West Newbury, Byfield and Rowley with oxygen masks.
