I love Runaway Farms! The staff is very friendly and they take excellent care of my dogs and cats. Dr. Dave is an excellent vet and we trust his judgement completely. We also love using the barn bucks earned during our visit for other services like the on-site groomer. I would recommend Runaway Farms to any pet owner.

Report
I've been taking my cat here for the past five years but after my experience last Monday and the neglect of not treating my animal, literally at all we will not be returning. My poor cat has gone over a week with an apparent hematoma on his ear which they didn't drain nor look at it for more than ten seconds and sent us on our way with a hefty bill for nothing other than meds that didn't work. Fast forward to a week later and I schedule him with a new vet and because they actually took the time to look at his ears they found that he has a horrible infection in BOTH ears, drained the hematoma, injected antibiotics into the ears and flushed both ears. Thanks to runaway my cat now has scar tissue on his ear from not being treated, something that could've been prevented if he was actually treated.

I was looking for a new veterinarian for my puppy. Dr. Dave and the staff at Runaway Farm Pet Hospital was highly recommended. I was very happy with our first visit with Dr. Dave. He took his time with our puppy and answered all my questions. He was patient, caring and very personable. I am so happy that we found a trustworthy veterinarian.
