Large Animal Hospital

The large animal hospital is well equipped, and all species of large animals can be catered for by the vets at Castlelands-Hourihane's Veterinary Clinic, including, but not limited to, horses, donkeys, cattle, pigs and sheep. Large animal veterinary services are provided by the large animal hospital in accordance with the opening hours, with additional emergency veterinary care offered after hours.

The large animal veterinary team comprises of 5 highly dedicated and competent veterinary surgeons, each with their own area of expertise, allowing the hospital to cater to a wide variety of species, and treat a range of illnesses.
