As Wimbledon approaches, here's a vital reminder to store netting away when not in use🚨

This young muntjac sadly passed away, severely entangled in tennis netting, after the extreme exertion of trying to escape on a hot day.

Netting poses a danger not only to wildlife but pets too, and last year, we received 1,355 reports of animals trapped in netting.

Please share this post as a reminder to remove and store sports netting after use🔁

This type of thing is really catching on. Some other international carriers doing the same thing now. Great news for the likes of us! 🙂

🇮🇹 Italy Just Upgraded Dogs to Cabin Class — No More Cargo Holds for Big Paws

For once, it's not just tiny lap dogs enjoying the skies.
Italy has officially changed the rules — now, medium and large dogs can fly in the cabin, side by side with their humans.

Until now, traveling with big dogs meant saying goodbye at the cargo gate — a stressful, risky experience for both pets and owners.
But Italy just flipped the script.

As long as your dog is leashed, well-behaved, and your airline agrees, your furry co-pilot can sit right beside you — paws, tail, and all.

Airlines like ITA Airways and Neos are already leading the pack, offering pet-friendly seats and policies that treat animals like passengers, not luggage.

It’s a win for animal welfare.
A comfort boost for pet parents.
And a bold step toward more compassionate, tail-wagging travel.

So don’t be surprised — next time you board a flight to Rome, there might be a golden retriever lounging by the window.

Italy just became the most dog-friendly airspace in Europe.
Pet parents, rejoice. 🐾

About 5:30am this morning, Garda Ruairc Courtney responded to a call made to Carrigaline Garda Station by a member of the public about a dog stranded at Monkstown Pier.

The dog was quite soaked, stuck in seaweed and in distress.

When he arrived, Garda Courtney hopped into the water to get to the dog and bring him to safety before the tide came back in.

This fine Border Collie is with us at Togher Garda Station where he’s happy out but we’d like to get him back home to his owners.

Is he yours or look familiar? Please call us 021 494 7120.
