The Salt Box house was constructed by Ebenezer Howe, one of the first settlers of the area. At that time the eighty-acre lot was part of Winchendon. Mr. Howe was one of the signers of the petition for incorporating the new town of Gardner. The house was later purchased by furniture factory owner, Mr. Keyworth, at the turn of the century.

Gardner Animal Care Center provides caring, compassionate veterinary medicine to pets in Gardner and beyond. When Dr. Brian C. Hurley was five years old, his dog, Shelley, was seriously injured. They rushed her to the veterinarian, but her injuries were too extensive to save and they had to say good-bye.

In your search for a veterinary facility, we believe all of you expect high-quality care as well as great service. Our goal has been to create an animal care center that meets the needs of you and your pet. The Gardner Animal Care Center was designed to offer you what you demand in veterinary health care and ancillary services such as grooming, boarding and agility, and training.
