Our story beings in 1928 when Dr. Mark L. Morris Sr. established Raritan Hospital for Animals in Edison, New Jersey. At the time, this was one of only two small animal hospitals in the United States. Dr. Morris believed managing nutrition could have a positive effect on the health of companion animals. Learn more about our story.
