Freddie 🧡
Freddie was with us for about 5 months in , he was adopted as a Lurcher puppy and returned after DNA test results said he was Greyhound Shepherd X so they didn’t want him anymore 😢.
Now he has been rehomed again and we couldn’t have found a better home for him. He’s a different dog now 🎓

The Sweetest Thing 🖤🐾
This little man was adopted from DSPCA but still needs a name, can you help?
Let’s name the puppy ⤵️ post your suggestions below
We often received calls about helping owners with unplanned litter of puppies. We can help with our "Mums & Puppies Neutering Programme".
The DSPCA will take in the puppies when they are old enough to be removed from their mother and find loving homes from them. We will then neuter the mum free of charge at our shelter in Rathfarnham, Dublin 16.

Our dog training academy is based onsite at the DSPCA and in many parks around Dublin. 100% of our income goes directly to fund the work of the DSPCA in helping sick, injured & cruelly treated animals.
We use force free training methods, we do not use or allow prong collars, chock chains, shock collars or physical force on your dog.
Our method is strictly positive reinforcement. This means your dog will be rewarded for correct behaviors. The easiest way to quickly reinforce a behavior is with food. But we will also use toys, attention and praise once the goal behavior is understood.
We will always set your dog up for success throughout their learning process. Training requires patience and consistency, we ask owners remain both throughout their training classes and afterwards.
By using positive reinforcement your dog will love training and learning. Your dog will look forward to training sessions and you dog will be easy to teach.
