Photos with Santa:

Saturday, November 19th, 2011 we hosted our first annual “ Photos with Santa” event. Our very own Dr. House was Santa and the entire staff was entertained by the most adorable pets that participated. Donations were accepted and we were able to raise $300 for the Buddy Foundation.

Cutest Pet Costume Contest:

Our Cutest Pet Costume Contest ran from Oct.7-30th,2011. Clients and local residents posted pictures of their pets in costume on our website. The voting took place on-line. Prize baskets, courtesy of Bentley’s Corner Barkery, were awarded in three categories: small dog, large dog and cat. Congratulations to: Minnie, the Bumble Bee, Buster, the Hot Dog, and Gandalf,the Halloween Cat.

Buddy Foundation Adoption Event:

Hoffman Estates Animal Hospital was  proud to  host to a Buddy Foundation Adoption Event on Saturday, October 22, 2011. Volunteers  from the Foundation were on hand to accept donations, talk about the shelter and show off some of the animals they have available for adoption. Our  hospital grounds provided a great location for them to have such an event.

Hospital Open House:

Hoffman Estates Animal Hospital celebrated their new location and their 26 years of service by hosting an Open House and party on the lawn. Educational demonstrations were given by the Veterinary Technicians in the hospital, while the Client Relations Team helped guests navigate the many activities outside. Pony rides, a fire truck,  a clown and face painting, coloring contest, free raffles…It was a fun day for everyone!

Hoffman Estates Animal Hospital was pleased to be a part of the Barrington Sidewalk Days at the end of July! Attendees were excited to see a new veterinary hospital in South Barrington! Our booth on Cook Street was a great success and our staff enjoyed reaching out to those who passed by. We raffled away two gift baskets and our winners were: Ginny Gilbert for the dog basket and Linda Koe for the cat basket. Congratulations to both of you!  Look for us at upcoming community events! 

Art in the Park:

This was the first year for "Art in the Park" where local businesses, community groups and organizations host creative, hands-on art projects for children and provide all the supplies for that project. The excessive heat did not deter vendors or young artists from coming out to show their support of the community. Hoffman Estates Animal Hospital gladly helped children make dog and cat toys for the animals in their lives. Thank you to all those that participated.

Ribbon Cutting Ceremony:

Hoffman Estates Animal Hospital celebrated their new location with an official ribbon cutting ceremony on June 1, 2011. The ribbon and giant scissors were provided by the Barrington Area Chamber of Commerce. In attendance were members of the staff, both the Barrington Area and Hoffman Estates Chamber members, and several people who worked on the project.
