FVC was not my first choice; I wanted somewhere closer to Tech's campus and relied upon the…read morerecommendations of Lubbock locals (both of whom held administrative roles at TTU). However, it was ultimately a Yelp review that led me to FVC. After adopting my dog from a no-kill shelter six months ago, I opted to stay with my mom's local tried and true vet in Denton, Texas. Disenchanted after two godawful experiences there (not anticipating the potentially deleterious effects of taking my fur baby off of a medication for a chronic condition, prescribing the wrong dosage based upon my dog's weight, and charging me extra to correct the medication), I was determined to find "the" vet for us in Lubbock, somewhere near Tech's campus. The vets referred to me by Tech's faculty failed to return my phone calls. Their glossy, professional websites offered me an e-mail address which to contact, but I never heard back. I scoured Yelp in search of "the" vet. It was a review of FVC written three months prior, documenting how one of the practice's vets followed up with a pup's owner following its appointment and ultimately summoned assistance to dig an elder dog's grave following the family's tragic loss. You don't come across such unbridled compassion and selflessness, nevertheless from a paid practitioner. I knew this was the vet. My experience at FVS was phenomenal from start-to-finish. The vet and vet tech genuinely care; they offer dynamic, comprehensive insights and keep the "big picture" in high regards. They thought ahead, and were careful to share the prices for additional tests/medications with me before performing or prescribing them. I have found a lifelong friend in the vet tech, Megan, and a trusted resource in the vet. Even the desk woman put a smile on my face. It was she that phoned me a week later to ask how my fur baby was doing and if I had any follow-up questions. You won't find a vet or clinic like that at FVC anywhere else. They absolutely set the standard.

When I first got to Lubbock five and half years ago I called quite a few veterinary clinics just to…read moresee which receptionist had the kindest sounding voice, Key Animal Clinic won. I believe the person I talked to all those years ago was Rachel, but I could be wrong. In the past I have been shamed to the point of tears by a vet*, so I was nervous about my first visit to the clinic with my cat of three years, nervous up until the point I met the vets Dr. Priya A. Dahanukar and Dr. Emily N. Shockey. They were calm and comfortable around cats. The whole experience was great. When I went up front to pay, they gave me a first time customer discount and some free advantage (they also did this when I brought in a new cat several years later . . . I guess the cats are the real customers ;-). I also met Dr. Key once before I had to move and in that brief visit he gave me a number of a person to interview for an article I was interested in writing! Over the five and a half years I went to Key Animal Clinic I never had a bad experience and I never had to wait that long to get in, which is nice, considering the mixed (cat and dog) waiting room. If I were a millionaire I would hire these vets as my personal on call cat healers, since I'm not a millionaire I'll settle for writing them a stellar review. Love to all the staff, techs, and vets at Key Animal Clinic, Katie *My bad experience was at Abilene Animal Hospital with Dr. Early

Although none of my chicks died, I was impressed with the store's policy about chicks dying. Simply come back and you can get a replacement. (Which is really considerate and generous) I've had difficulty contacting the owner at times, and their business hours are less flexible than other competitors. However, I feel that the quality and prices, as well as the lack of a chicken minimum, makes visiting T-birds worthwhile.

As far as being treated rudely I would suggest that you put your big girl panties on and get out the real world because daddy's not gonna take care of everything for you. As far as raising chickens for a hobby I dokn't know anyone that does that they usually do that specifically to gather eggs or to breed them, harvest them then eat them . It's not like a puppy dog that you can throw to the side when you're done playing with it. I highly recommend purchasing any livestock from this company like I said I have been doing business with them for years and have never had a problem with them. They are very knowledgeable and very willing to work with you I don't know what she was expecting when she walked into the shop but when you're dealing with live animals you're gonna have a dirty place that's just a fact of life. Again I have been doing business with them for very long period of time and will continue to do business with them as they can get me any kind of livestock or feed that I could possibly need for my animals. I know quite a few other folks that have been doing business with them also and they will say the same things that I am saying now.
