Our first classes of 3025 start today and gorgeous Maddie from Mayo Society For Prevention of Cruelty to Animals MSPCA LTD joined us again today. Maddie is a 5 month old Collie/Kelpie Cross and is absolutely gorgeous. She is quite shy so we spent a little bit of time with her after the class and found out she likes toys that make a noise so we are going to try and tap into that to bring her out of her shell. She would make a lovely pet for anyone, likes her cuddles and I even got kisses today. She is very smart so needs a home where she will be given the right sort of stimulation. She is very good at using her nose and did well at the Mantrailing Intro recently. It would be good to get this sweet little girl a home of her own while she is still young so if you or anyone you know might be interested please contact Mayo SPCA to find out more. I'll be sharing bits of Maddie's journey as she works her way through the 6 weeks of classes. Thank you so much to Andrea for collecting her and bringing her to classes with me.

Congratulations to Andrea and her dogs Lark and Seamus who completed Mantrailing Level 2 today. Seamus is a bit nervous about passing cars and did extremely well not to react to any of them today. Thanks to Bethan for taking the photo.

We had some very rare breeds taking part in the mantrailing Introduction at the weekend - quite possibly the only ones in Ireland of each breed. It was lovely to see them work. I particularly fell in love with little Manu, he's just a puppy and was a bit timid at first but grew in confidence through the day and he has a great nose. Cori was a natural too and Ari will be if we can manage to make the trailing more rewarding than the environment for him (you can tell he's from a working dog background). Looking forward to seeing more of these dogs.

Mantrailing Introduction
When I put a Mantrailing Intro on the 28th December I thought it would end up being either a genius move or tumbleweeds. It turned out to be a good idea because there was a lot of interest and 8 new dogs got to try Mantrailing for the first time today. Congratulations to Team Maddie, Willow, Abbey, Duke, Bella, Manu, Aron and Cori. We were fairly lucky with the weather and it was great to be outside doing something to clear away the Christmas cobwebs. If you would like to have a go at Mantrailing the next introduction day is Sat 1st February and it's available to book now at

It was a bit nippy today for our last Mantrailing day before Christmas (but not our last of 2024 as I am busy next weekend with both an Introduction Day for new people and then a Fun Day or two for the regulars). One of our regular Mantrailers made some lovely bobble hats that we all bought and sported for at least part of the day. I love the pompom on mine, it reminds me of rabbit fur! We had a great day with a mix of rural in the morning and urban in the afternoon. Our Mantrailing is done almost exclusively as full days and we only do shorter sessions occasionally. The wind was strong today so that in itself was a big challenge for the dogs but we did a range of components including one where the trail layer was hiding in the back of my van (to keep them warm - and as it happened out of the one shower that we had). We had lots of wins today including from some of our more shy dogs who are growing in confidence all the time. Happy Birthday to Aniko who chose to come and spend her special day with us (but didn't tell us otherwise we would have had cake!)

MANTRAILING INTRODUCTION
Do you find the time between Christmas and New Year a bit boring?
Wish you had something "healthy" to do?
Wish you could spend a day with your dog doing something fun together?
Or do you fancy giving your dog an amazing Christmas present/surprise?
Come and join us for an Introduction to Mantrailing and give your busy dog a job, or your timid dog a confidence boost.
Mantrailing is the fastest growing dog sport in Ireland and involves teaching your dog how to trail and find a specific person based on their own unique scent.
All ages and breeds welcome (puppies must have had their 2nd vaccinations)

Congratulations to Valerie and Yoshi, and Oisin and Fia who passed their Level 1 Mantrailing assessment yesterday and will be progressing on to Level 2. They were joined by teams Maple, Mellick, Sky and Izzy on what turned out to be quite a nice day with just a few showers (for a change - I feel like I'm getting soaked quite regularly at the moment). Well done everyone!

I did two lovely puppy 1:1 home visits today and was met at the door of the second house by Rosie and this absolutely fantastic drawing that she did to welcome me. I told her it was one of the best surprises I ever had and that I would put it up somewhere special. I asked if I could share it here and she said yes. Thank you Rosie, you made my day!
