Dr. Harron

Dr. Harron

Veterinarian

Following graduation in 1994 with a specialized honours degree in Bio-medical Science, Dr. Harron graduated with honours from the Ontario Veterinary College in 1999. Gaining a wide variety of experiences, she practiced veterinary medicine for companion animals in a private practice and with the Mississauga-Oakville Veterinary Emergency Hospital. In 2007, she and her family moved to the beautiful Orangeville area to join the Dufferin Veterinary Hospital team. It was with great excitement that she became the owner of Dufferin Veterinary Hospital in 2009. With a special interest in rehabilitation therapy, she thoroughly enjoys all aspects and daily surprises of small animal veterinary practice. It is with compassion and enthusiasm that she looks forward to becoming your “other family doctor”—to help you enrich the quality of life for your animal companions. When not desperately trying to keep up with her two young children and bouncing Boxer dogs, her other interests include gardening, downhill skiing and trying not to fall off her S.U.P.
Dr. Adler

She is an active member of the Chesley Saddle Club and the Ontario Trail Riding Association, and a band member of the Lac Des Mille Lacs First Nation.

When not attending to the needs of her patients, Dr. Adler can be found hiking with her own dogs, reading, or riding a horse.

Mackenna, RVT

Mackenna, RVT

Veterinary Technician

Mackenna is one of our Registered Veterinary Technicians in both our Orangeville and Shelburne locations. She graduated from the University of Guelph Ridgetown Campus in 2022. Mackenna is an animal lover of all kinds, which stemmed from being raised on a dairy goat farm just outside of Dundalk. In high school Mackenna did her co-op placement at a mixed veterinary clinic that provided care to both small and large animals, which intrigued her to start her career as an RVT. Each day while working she enjoys learning new things and meeting your furry companions. In her spare time, Mackenna enjoys driving with her country music blaring while sipping an iced cappuccino.

Jade currently lives in Shelburne with her fiancé, an animal-loving toddler, and two crazy huskies. She has years of hands-on experience working with dogs and is thrilled to now be a part of the family at Dufferin Veterinary Hospital.
