Butler Animal Health Supply, LLC, a privately owned company, is the result of a business combination between The Butler Company and Burns Veterinary Supply. The company is equally owned by Oak Hill Capital Partners II, L.P. and the Darby Group Companies, Inc.

The combination of The Butler Company and Burns Veterinary Supply allowed two committed companies to join together and bring you a host of synergies to help your practice:


  • An unparalleled field sales organization that is the largest, most highly qualified, trained and automated field sales force in the nation. This translates into more frequent visits and better service to the clinics we serve with a “solutions” driven sales approach.
  • An unparalleled telesales staff in size and quality to compliment the efforts of the field sales organization to strengthen client relationships and provide constant communications to our veterinary customers.
  • A more advanced and efficient distribution organization with “state of the art” automation demonstrating fill rates in excess of 97% coupled with extraordinary high accuracy rates.
  • An enhanced ability to bring value-added services such as clinic inventory management, practice management software, and “user friendly” on-line ordering.
  • An increase in product offering via synergies associated with Butler, Burns and Darby Dental.
  • An ability to compliment our value-added approach with the ability to strategically source products by capitalizing on the combined market strength of Butler, Burns and Darby Dental.
Although together we can meet all of the needs of your practice, it is the combined experience of more than 100 years that has taught us how we can meet the needs of your practice today. Follow our links to find out the history behind The Butler Company and Burns Veterinary Supply.
