TERMINAL: New Analytics Platform to Track Veterinary Practice Ownership across the U.S.

April 22, 2026

The Bird Bath, an animal health information and insights company, recently launched TERMINAL, a searchable, continuously updated dataset and analytics platform that helps veterinary operators, investors, and vendors track practice ownership, market trends, and M&A activity across the U.S.

The dataset covers nearly 37,000 U.S. veterinary practices, and 60+ corporate groups across 50 states and two U.S. territories.

According to Ryan Leech, Growth Consultant and Owner of The Bird Bath and First 100:

  • “Having worked across consolidators, software, and with dozens of veterinary startups, I’ve seen how much time and effort it takes to understand market structures across regions, identify acquisition targets, and benchmark competition. With Terminal, you can instantly find all independent practices in Colorado, see what practice management software (PIMS) practices are using in Florida, or understand how many veterinary hospitals are corporate-owned across the U.S., all from one interactive map.“

An annual subscription is required in order to access the veterinary market intelligence platform.

    • “Terminal is what I always wanted someone to build. Every practice, every owner, every signal, in one place, updated constantly. So I built it. Not because I thought there was a business here at first, honestly. I built it because I was tired of guessing, and I knew everyone I respect in this space was tired of guessing too. Now we have Terminal,” according to Ryan Leech, Growth Consultant and Owner of The Bird Bath and First 100.
