I live in Pflugerville and I needed to get my new Doberman puppies ears cropped. There are very few options in the greater Austin area for ear cropping these days. Pfenning lane is a little expensive, but it sure is better than having to drive three hours each way with a screaming puppy in your vehicle to Dallas or Houston for the procedure. Not to mention the follow up visits. Dr. Hanson did a perfect mid-crop on my boy Prince. And the entire staff at Pfenning Lane was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommended.

Amazing team at Pfenning Lane Animal Hospital. From when I walked in to make an appointment to the day of the actual appointment always felt like I had been going to them for years. Every team member greeted with us, shared a some personal humor and put us at ease. It has that old small town feel and not the rushed in rushed out atmosphere. The Vet and the attendee took time to get to know us and what we were experiencing. We have a special needs pup and the Vet screened through all the documents we had asked questions before ever making any judgement calls. Without a doubt the BEST team of vets I could have ever hoped or imagined!

Great care, and on the same day I called for the 1st appointment. I will be bringing my remaining dog and daughter's cat here regularly because the vets and staff provided great ( caring & reasonable) service for my older dog and we are truly grateful !!

We took our old girl in for shots and annual check. Our usual vet was not there, so we were seen by a "traveling" vet who was pleasant enough but was quite a "fast talker." By the time we left, we had spent over $600, were scared to death by her "possible" outcomes if we didn't do what she suggested, and a recommendation to surgically remove a tumor that the previous vet has always said was just a fatty tumor. Not sure we'll go back. Too expensive and stressful. Reeks of corporate ownership, which is why I left Hometown Vet.
