Five-star customer reviews for Tanglefoot Veterinary Services in Cranbrook:

“Our second emergency after-hours visit in two years with our Pug, Rosie: Exceptional care yet again after Rosie got into something she shouldn’t have AGAIN and put herself in both respiratory and gastrointestinal distress.

Dr. Joanna and Charlotte took our concerns seriously and promptly and we have our Rosie back with us rather dopey but feeling much better. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Your care and concern really show.” ~ Sandra, Google reviewer

“Amazing vet clinic. Our older border collie was in rough shape after being attacked by an off-leash dog. This happened after hours and we were able to talk to a technician over the phone and get expert advice immediately. The vet and technicians at Tanglefoot took amazing care to clean and stitch him up a couple of times and offer advice and support any time we needed. It's only been a few weeks and our boy is almost back to normal.” ~ Rene, Google reviewer

“Staff are super friendly and treat your pets well. Everything is clean and they have a large variety of foods available. Testing turnaround is quick and follow-up is always done. Really happy with the service we have experienced here over the years. Your fur-babies will be well taken care of.” ~ Granden and Myra, Google reviewers

There are a wide range of other services that we offer our furry friends. For cats that are prone to matting and do not tolerate being brushed, we can shave them with the help of sedation. We can either simply shave the mats out or give them a fancy lion cut!

We also do microchipping either during an annual exam or when they come in for a spay or neuter. If you have a pet that needs a blood transfusion, we can do that in the clinic. Staff pets often act as donors. If multiple transfusions are going to be needed, we will blood type your pet and try to find a match with the help of an outside laboratory. These are just a few examples of additional services offered. If you are ever looking for a specific procedure, please feel free to call and ask because we may be able to help you.

Tanglefoot Veterinary Services offers farm calls for horses and cattle along with making routine trips to Creston, Fernie and Invermere to help take care of all your horse's needs.
