In 1886, Victor Theodule Daubigny founded the "École de médecine vétérinaire française de Montréal" (the French Veterinary Medicine School of Montreal), which was affiliated with Victoria University in Ontario; however, Daubigny broke ties with Victoria University after one year. The school was officially founded on April 4, 1886, and inaugurated on September 30th of the same year. The first courses were taught in a newly-constructed building on Craig street in Montreal, which also served as a residence, clinic, pharmacy, and library. Certain courses, such as chemistry, histology, and physiology, were taught at the University of Laval in Montreal's faculty of medicine.
The faculty of veterinary medicine moved to Oka, Quebec in 1928, and then to St. Hyacinthe, Quebec in 1947. It became the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine at the University of Montreal officially in 1969.
