Dennis Harrigan, DVM

I have lived in Gilroy and been caring for animals at Gilroy Veterinary Hospital for the past 32 years.  My wife, Renee, and I have enjoyed a rich community life, being involved with the Gilroy Garlic Festival, teaching art and science at elementary schools and in the community, along with volunteering for several local clubs and non-profits. We have two adult sons: Brian and Kyle, and two grandsons; David and Anthony.  Other loved family members include; Elle, our dog, and Scooter, our cat.  My interests in veterinary medicine have varied through the years. Those interests have led me to continue to learn, so I am better able to serve our patients. I have enjoyed helping our community with their pets and I thank them for entrusting their family members to us. One last thing......in my spare time, I enjoy being with my grandkids, traveling, fly fishing, hiking, cooking and sometimes, making/drinking beer.

I went to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo as an animal science major and then on to graduate from UC Davis Veterinary School in 2013. I have worked in private practice as well as in emergency medicine. While seeing the unexpected in my work at an emergency facility was exciting, I thoroughly enjoy working with clients and their furry family members to develop a strong relationship aimed at giving their pets the best life they can have. Outside of work, I enjoy traveling, running, and enjoying family as much as possible, since returning to California after four years living on the east coast. I have a cat, Thumper, and Miniature Australian Shepherd, Effie, that always keep me on my toes.
