Compassionate care for every animal, every day
Riverbend Animal Care is a regional animal welfare and veterinary organisation serving northern Victoria. It runs a companion animal shelter and adoption centre, a general practice veterinary clinic with a surgical suite, a boarding kennel and cattery, a grooming salon and a behaviour and training service. Under contract to a local council it also delivers animal management services, including the collection and impounding of stray and unregistered animals. Its customers range from private pet owners and rescue groups to farms, retirement villages and a greyhound rehoming program. Every year the organisation cares for around 2,400 animals through the shelter and sees more than 9,000 clinic consultations.
