A fire ripped through a third-floor flat in Drumchapel on Monday afternoon, leaving its windows shattered and tragically killing a dog.
The blaze took hold of a flat on Linkwood Drive just before 5pm on July 10 with firefighters rushing to the scene to put it out.
Scottish Fire and Rescue service arrived at the scene and used a ladder to assist two casualties before paramedics raced the patients - including a child - to hospital.
A SFRS spokesperson said: "We were alerted at 4.42pm on Monday, 10 July to reports of a dwelling fire affecting a flat on Linkwood Drive, Glasgow.

"Crews left at 8.23pm after ensuring the area had been made safe."
The Scottish Ambulance Service sent two ambulances and a special operations team to the scene.

"The first resource arrived within eight minutes. We transported two patients to hospital, including one child.”
The community has now set up a fundraising page to help the two families affected by the blaze, claiming they 'lost everything'.
The JustGiving page which has raised £880 so far, reads: "A fierce fire ripped through a family home destroying everything they had. They fled with only the clothes on their back as did their neighbours who will have smoke, water and fire damage and will have to rebuild from scratch so any amount that is raised will help them with that.
"Clothes, food and furniture donations will be collected or picked-up locally to help them on their feet. Thank you Drumchapel and our neighbours you are amazing as always."
