$1-million gift supports cutting-edge OVC unit

A passion for animals and an appreciation for outstanding veterinary care have inspired a new $1-million gift to the University of Guelph’s Ontario Veterinary College (OVC). The donation from Lindy Barrow is one of the first leadership gifts to a $9-million fundraising campaign launched this fall through the OVC Pet Trust.

OVC will use the donation to create the Lindy Barrow Minimally Invasive Procedures Suite. A first for any veterinary teaching hospital in Canada, this unit will include state-of-the-art technology that helps avoid major veterinary surgery, meaning less pain and faster recovery time for pets.
