    My pal stayed 5 days. He came home healthy. He is 6 and I guess learned to bark while I was out of town. Old dogs can learn new tricks

    So I’ve been using Critter Creek since I adopted my dog from a rescue shelter in 2020 and they’re great!! Except for one visit where I wound up leaving with something that I specifically told Dr. Schneider that I couldn’t afford at the time. At my most recent visit on 9/9/25 I wound up having to see a technician for my dogs vaccination appointment because I guess the vets were too busy, but that’s alright, except that my appointment was 30 minutes late. I also asked the receptionist to add a note to my office visit to see if they could recommend some kind of calming dog treats for my dog and she told me that the vet would reach out to me with the information, which hasn’t happened yet……..

    Had to have an emergency appointment for our dog. First time here. Nice, clean facility. All staff were kind and professional. Only reason I didn't give 5 stars was the eye watering bill - over $600 for exam and x-ray.
