We are pleased to see socialisation and habituation programmes introduced to the new Guidelines. However, remains concerned in particular areas; staff to dog ratio, adequate inspections and provisions and enforcement of the Dog Breeding Establishment Act 2010

We believe that certain restrictions in workplaces, food-serving establishments, hotels, social venues, public transport and the rental market do very little to encourage potential dog owners in welcoming a furry friend in to their life. If Ireland was to become more Dog Friendly, dog ownership could become a realistic option for so many more, and would bring us one step closer to our goal of being the best country in the world for dogs and their owners.

On Friday we had fantastic news to share about Boo and today we have even more fantastic news about another sponsor dogs, Bruno! He has been adopted!
