Dublin, Republic of Ireland -- (ReleaseWire) -- 11/16/2016 --Hillcrest Veterinary Hospital based at Clonsilla Road, Coolmine, Dublin has been credited for their dedication in helping save the lives of two dogs that suffered smoke inhalation after an apartment fire. Hillcrest Veterinary Hospital, which has become one of the most recommended pet health services in Dublin went above and beyond the normal services provided by veterinary hospitals when two dogs were rushed into their surgery on the evening of Halloween.
The fire brigade who rescued the two dogs from an apartment fire took them to the Hillcrest Veterinary Hospital (www.HillcrestVets.ie) as they are open seven days a week including Bank holidays. The team at the veterinary hospital leaped into action and provided emergency treatment to rescue the dogs. It was important the dogs received constant monitoring and support.

Vet, Fiona O'Leary from Hillcrest Veterinary Hospital said: "We took them both home overnight as their home had burnt down and they needed constant monitoring and support. This is not something we usually do, but in these extreme circumstances, extreme measures are necessary which we were very happy to do this"
