Look what arrived in the post this morning! Delighted to have achieved my Advanced Diploma in Animal Behaviour Management (Distinction) 🎓 It took a lot of hard work to get here but it was all worth it to ensure my clients receive quality support and guidance backed by a reputable certified qualification ☺️

Friends come in all shapes and sizes 🥰 While Molly the collie is on strict bed rest following a spinal injury, her lovely sister Mimi has been painting the town red with her bestie Maisie! These two are a dream team ❤️ Maisie gets so excited when she sees me turn up with her pal and Mimi loves having a fellow doggy to explore with 🤩 These girls are meeting so many of their enrichment needs on our walks (physical ✅ mental ✅ social ✅) and are having the best time doing it!

And just like that, I've finished my behaviour course! That last module was a toughie, taking me a full six months and 84,500 words 😳 But we got there 💪 I'm off now to bask in the sun to celebrate so I'll catch you when I'm back on the 25th 😎

Yeehaw! 🤠 Bring on the mocktails 🍹☀️

Autumn is well and truly here! 🍂☕🧣

When you used to spend your Friday nights in the club swooning the ladies but now you work all week in a 9-5 job to feed your family and pay your mortgage so your Friday nights consist of ordering a takeaway and passing out from exhaustion on the sofa by 8pm only to wake up and see Netflix asking you if you're still there...

Forrest can totally relate. He's wrecked from his week of eating, napping, and spying on the neighbours. It sure is a hard life!

Ten!

That is the number of dogs TJ saw on his walk yesterday. Do you want to know how many he reacted to? Just one! That is HUGE progress for this little man 🎉 Over the past few weeks we've been building our foundations and yesterday we really started to see our hard work pay off.

So how does it work? Essentially, we’re rewarding TJ for calmly acknowledging other dogs at a distance and choosing to engage with his handler instead. Plus, we’re strengthening our bond and engagement (and injecting lots of fun into our sessions!) by practising dynamic behaviours such as touch, rollover, spin, and crawl.

TJ’s also loving the new treats (thanks .cork!) which can be chopped up for perfectly sized quick rewards whether you have a Maltese or a Malamute!

Hello friends!

It's been a busy few weeks of training but I'm very excited to share with you that I'm going to be running the Echo's Women's Mini Marathon right here in Cork in two weeks time! You might remember that I ran it last year to raise funds for West Cork Animal Welfare in memory of my beautiful doggy friend, Sam. Well together we raised a huge amount which went to helping lots of animals in need.

This year I'm doing it again but for another charity in memory of another beautiful soul who sadly left us this year. We lost our cat, Gus, to heart failure back in April and it was a traumatic experience, to say the least. When life deals you sh*tty cards it can be really hard to know what to do, but for me, running really helped me get out of my head for a bit.

That's why, this year, I'm raising funds for Cat Action Trust Cork, the charity which brought Gus and his sister, Niska, into our lives. They do such incredible work for cats in need all over the county. I'd be so grateful if you could donate even the price of a cup of coffee to this wonderful cause.

I've set myself the big, maybe overly ambitious goal, of beating last year's time by ten minutes... But don't worry, my coach, Forrest (pictured above), is a Paralympic gold medalist so I think I'll be fine 😂

If you're seeing this on Instagram, you can find the donation link in my bio.
And if you're seeing this on Facebook, you can use this link - idonate.ie/fundraiser/Gus.

Thank you ❤️🐾

How adorable is Sam's doggy paddle? 😭❤️ I recently had the pleasure of taking this handsome fella to a super remote spot where there were no other humans or doggos about. Sam got to enjoy some time without his muzzle and had a super little swim! Swimming is a great activity for dogs of any age, but particularly older dogs or dogs with joint issues. It was so lovely to see Sam so relaxed and happy in our own little paradise 🏝️ NOTE: This adventure happened pre-heatwave during temperatures not exceeding 20°C. Always ensure the safety of your dog before embarking on any adventures during warm weather.

Hello my lovely friends! Next month I will be hosting an online raffle for one of my favourite doggy rescues - RIGHT - Rehoming Irish Greyhounds Team 💙 RIGHT does phenomenal work in finding homes for greyhounds who have been discarded by the racing and coursing industry. One of my best gal pals, Sally here, is just one of the many many greyhounds that has benefited from the life-saving work RIGHT does. To say thank you for helping my friend and to help RIGHT save many more like her, let's make this a fundraiser to remember! Of course no raffle would be complete without prizes so I'm currently on the hunt for goodies and sponsors who would like to take part. So get busy tagging who you'd like to see featured in the raffle! Bonus points for small Irish businesses! 😉☘️ #dogsofcork #dogsofireland #rescuegreyhound #rescuedog #exracinggreyhound #petsnotbets #supportanimalrescues

I promise I'm not crying 🥺❤️ The Waggy Walkies crew is honestly the best 🙌 🎥: Robert the Greyhound

Happy Friday! 🎉🐕 #dogwalkingcork #corkdogs #dogsofcork #pointercross #rescuedog
