* Note - the image above is just a picture of my dog at a playground. I have no images of the Veterinary Hospital, or any of the parties involved in this issue.
A veterinary hospital in Fairless Hills, PA is in some hot water after this knowingly returned the wrong cremation of one client's dog, saying it was their dog.
Some time after, the owners recieved a phone call from the crematory saying their pet's ashes still have yet to be picked up.
In an article from the Bucks County Courier Times, apparently Hidden Valley Veterinary Hospital owns $3500 in unpaid bills to the crematory.
The crematory has said it stop releasing the cremated remains to the hospital because of unpaid bills.
This is just one of many of the on going problems with the hospital. As the hospital has been in the paper at least once before. For not paying their employees.
