Harley is our true Christmas miracle 🙏Harley presented in acute respiratory distress to our emergency service last Sunday and suffered a cardiac arrest soon after admission. Our emergency and Specialist teams worked tirelessly to revive him and managed to restart his heart with CPR. X-rays revealed Harley’s stomach had become trapped in his chest and filled with gas, crushing his heart and lungs and damaging his kidneys. Harley was in a coma, and needed round-the-clock intensive care. Only 5% of pets who suffer a cardiac arrest survive to be discharged from the hospital, but Harley’s family wanted to give him every chance at life. Harley awoke from his coma and slowly began to recognize people and shake paws. His kidneys recovered and a CT scan revealed a very rare type of congenital hiatal hernia, with his spleen twisted inside. Extensive surgery was necessary for Harley to have any chance of a normal life. Surgery was a great success and Harley made an immediate recovery🙏 Our whole team gathered to wave him off as he was discharged to his very relieved family on Friday, just in time to celebrate Christmas🎄 Harley is alive today because of our quick thinking emergency team, the skillset of our Critical Care and Surgery teams, and most importantly his dedicated family who offered him unwavering support in his time of greatest need 🙌#ittakesavillage #frenchbulldog #frenchiesofinstagram #vetspecialist #vethospital #vetmed
Spotted!
Our nurse Nadine knew just what to do to get Bobby to eat his first meal by himself in over a week 🙌🥰
Bobby recently needed intensive supportive care as he recuperated from emergency gallbladder surgery, including making sure he received the nutrition he needed to heal via feeding tube while he wasn’t well enough to eat himself
Our team didn’t just feed his body but made sure to feed his soul with love and encouragement, and there was a big cheer when it was announced he was finally well enough to go home 🥳
Having a beloved family member in intensive care is a very stressful experience - rest assured we make sure to take care of their every physical and emotional need 🙏

Four weeks ago, 4 month old Finn suffered a catastrophic neck fracture that rendered him completely paralysed and in severe pain
Finn was terrified, only able to move his eyes. Our team leapt into action in the late hours of Thursday evening. An emergency CT revealed a smashed C2 spinal bone, crushing his spinal cord, and emergency surgery continued until the early hours of morning to realign and stabilize the bones in his neck
It was unclear if Finn would survive the surgery, let alone ever walk again
Finn was in intensive care for over a week as he regained first the ability to wag his tail, movement in his back legs and then his front legs, until finally he could be discharged home to his family for continued rehabilitation and care
And what a job they have done!
Finn is up and walking, and is back to working on his basic training - he is a pro at sit, down and shaking paws 🐾
Finn’s journey has taken a village, from the team Cromlyn House Veterinary Hospital who provided exemplary urgent care and safe transport to the emergency and intensive nursing teams Veterinary Specialists Ireland and his hydro team
Most importantly, Finn had a family who would not give up on him, in spite of the odds 🙏
We are so proud of you Finn, and wish you a long and happy life 🫶

Sonny was lucky to escape with life and limb intact after a close call with a spontaneous life-threatening flesh eating infection 🦠
Sonny spent almost a month in hospital for intensive care and multiple reconstructive surgeries
Our team were with him the whole way, through the ups and downs, and became heavily invested in his recovery 🙏
We could not have asked for a braver patient, even when gravely ill. With the support of his amazing family, Sonny has made an astounding recovery and we love to see his cheeky and fun-loving personality
Thank you Sonny for reminding us why we do what we do
