We trust no one like we do CVRC. Our pup is our family. We have been with this group for over 4 years now.

Our babygirl, Blu, was diagnosed with a lung infection and pneumonia. After multiple vet visits, we called CVRC and we were advised to come in. From the moment we got here, they’ve been extremely caring and loving towards Blu. Their communication is impeccable & they have been doing the best that they can. Our sweet girl still has a long road of recovery, but we’re hoping...
