On Saturday afternoon, team members attended a walker on the Aran ridge who had found an injured dog and was struggling to make progress off the hill with her.
The dog, who had sustained a broken leg in a fall on rocky ground, was in considerable pain, but behaved impeccably as Team cas-carers splinted her injury. She was carried a short distance by stretcher to a point where local farmers had managed to reach by quad bike. It would have been an uncomfortable ride down off the mountain, but the quickest way to reach the vet.
