Easy to give chewable to protect against fleas and ticks for dogs that lasts for 12 weeks, and a 12 week topical for cats. A topical treatment that is given once a month to protect cats from heart worms and other intestinal worms for 1 month. Easy to give chewable that protects your pet against heartworms and other intestinal worms for 1 month.
Regardless of the severity of the problem, it is always a good experience. I have never seen such interest in an animal as I see from all that come in contact with me and my pets. All the Doctors and medical staff (and front desk folks as well!) are very caring people. A huge thank you goes out to the doctors and staff.

If I could give negative stars I would. Being that we have a farm and lots of animals, it seems like something is always happening with them. We've lived here a long time and Crane veterinary is the only emergency vet open late. The 1st time we had an emergency an we took our injured duck there after a dog attack. I remember the vet saying the duck was fine and he would survive.

The duck did not survive the night. The 2nd time we went here was with one of our exotics who was also injured by a stray dog. They didn't look severely injured but I had a feeling that they probably were. The vets did x-rays and stitched up lacerations and said they were fine but by morning they were dead. In the 40 years I've lived here I have heard countless more stories from my friends like this about Crane veterinary.

Not only that but because it's an emergency they charge an arm and a leg. I have vowed ever since not to take any of my animals here and to make sure everyone knows the kind of service they will get from their sub par vets.

My 6 1/2 month old puppy had pneumonia and wanted to get him checked up after it happened, my regular vet didn't even want to check his lungs or anything. Brought him in here and they took it seriously and got him in with x-rays and bloodwork and everything. Will be my regular vet now, thank you for everything!

Took my buns there for spay surgeries, they were eating again within a few hours of going home and healed perfectly!

Crain's is a wonderful place to take your pet. We have used them off/on for over 10 years not just to care for our animals but also to have them cremated after we lose one of them. The vet at this location has always taken the time to come out & acknowledge what we had going on & always showed empathy when needed. I would recommend this veterinarian to everybody.

I have a very high maintenance Frenchie that has been treated by the staff and doctors at Crain for the past 8 years. It has been my privilege to watch how each and every one of them genuinely care for my baby. They are efficient, effective, detailed, they follow through and most importantly kind and considerate to both me and my dog. I appreciate them very much and don't know what we'd do without them!

I cannot thank this veterinary enough! They saved my kitty today. Poor thing had an open wound and active infection and ended up needing surgery. Called our "regular" vet and several ER vets, no one would help. Called Crain and was told to bring her in. We will be switching all of our animals here! This is what a veterinarian is supposed to do, access the urgency and save animals lives!

I have been taking my precious dog to this vet office for a couple of years now. I have been impressed with how informative and efficient they are. My baby has been sick several times and they have always taken great care of her. Would recommend!

I have taken all three of my dogs here for few years now. They are always honest about care. They have never forced care on me. I have always valued their opinions on what needs to be done but they have always given me the choice. Anytime one of my pups are sick they have gotten us in immediately. All the doctors here are very caring. I will continue bringing my dogs to this clinic.

So we had our dog get some lab work done and skin scrap and payed over $300.00 for all this just to be told twice now that they are to busy to have the vet call us back with the results( a two to five minute call at best) meanwhile our dog is walking around miserable with a cone on. We still have no clue what is going on with our dog and this was three days ago(in the morning). Come on now.
