⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

Rather than grasp the nettle of illegal breeding and licensed puppy farmers and engaging with the Department of Agriculture/ Irish Government to wake up and change the laws around the overbreeding of dogs in this country … the decision is made that it would be cheaper to kill innocent dogs from the Restriced Dog Breeds List. It’s a cull, plain and simple. The scale of strays entering this particular pound is unmanageable so their soloution is to cull stray dogs from the list.
How on earth have we come to this.

Dogs on the Irish Restricted Breeds List Include:

▫️American pit bull terrier
◽️English bull terrier
▫️Staffordshire bull terrier
◽️Bull mastiff
▫️Dobermann pinscher
◽️German shepherd (Alsatian)
▫️Rhodesian ridgeback
◽️Rottweiler
▫️Japanese akita
◽️Japanese tosa
▫️Bandog

In Ireland, a restricted breed doesn’t mean that a dog on the list is banned — but under the Control of the Dogs Regulations 1998, there are extra rules that someone who owns a dog on the list must adhere to:

🔺The dog must be kept on a short, strong lead that is under two metres in length.
🔺The person accompanying them must be over the age of 16 and must be able to control them
🔺They must be muzzled when out in public
🔺The dog must also wear a collar with the name and address of their owner at all times

If you own any of the dogs or cross of these dogs we strongly advise that you consult the following website and adhere to the rules above ⬆️

👉🏻 https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/environment/pets-and-wildlife/control-of-dogs/ 👈🏻

This could mean life or death for your beloved pet if they find them selves in the wrong pound.
Now more than ever RESPONSIBLE DOG ownership is an absolute must. ⚠️

Everyone who is thinking of getting dogs should read this because you need to understand this reality:

***I am a 21st century dog.***
-I'm a Malinois.
Overskilled among dogs, I excel in all disciplines and I'm always ready to work: I NEED to work.
But nowadays I get asked to chill on the couch all day everyday.

-I am an Akita Inu.
My ancestors were selected for fighting bears.
Today I get asked to be tolerant and I get scolded for my reactivity when another approaches me.

-I am a Beagle.
When I chase my prey, I raise my voice so the hunters could follow.
Today they put an electric collar on me to shut up, and you make me come back to you - no running - with a snap of your fingers.

-I am a Yorkshire Terrier.
I was a terrifying rat hunter in English mines.
Today they think I can't use my legs and they always hold me in their arms.

-I'm a Labrador Retriever.
My vision of happiness is a dive into a pond to bring back the duck he shot to my master.
Today you forget I'm a walking, running, swimming dog; as a result I'm fat, made to stay indoors, and to babysit.

-I am a Jack Russell.
I can take on a fox, a mean badger, and a rat bigger than me in his den.
Today I get scolded for my character and high energy, and forced to turn into a quiet living room dog.

-I am a Siberian Husky.
Experienced the great, wide open spaces of Northern Europe, where I could drag sleds for long distances at impressive speeds.
Today I only have the walls of the house or small garden as a horizon, and the holes I dig in the ground just to release energy and frustration, trying to stay sane.

-I am a border collie
I was made to work hours a day in partnershipwith my master, and I am an unmistakable artist of working with the herd.
Today they are mad at me because, for lack of sheep, I try to check bikes, cars, children in the house and everything in motion.

I am ...
I am a 21st century dog.
I'm pretty, I'm alert, I'm obedient, I stay in a bag...but I'm also an individual who, from centuries of training, needs to express my instincts, and I am *not* suited for the sedentary life you'd want me to lead.
Spending eight hours a day alone in the house or in the garden - with no work and no one to play or run with, seeing you for a short time in the evening when you get home, and only getting a small toilet walk will make me deeply unhappy.
I'll express it by barking all day, turning your yard into a minefield, doing my needs indoors, being unmanageable the rare times I'll find myself outside, and sometimes spending my days sunk, sad, lonely, and depressed, on my pillow.
You may think that I should be happy to be able to enjoy all this comfort while you go to work, but actually I’ll be exhausted and frustrated, because this is absolutely NOT what I'm meant to do, or what I need to be doing.
If you love me, if you've always dreamed of me, if my beautiful blue eyes or my athletic look make you want me, but you can't give me a real dog's life, a life that's really worth living according to my breed, and if you can't offer me the job that my genes are asking, DO NOT buy or adopt me!
If you like the way I look but aren't willing to accept my temperament, gifts, and traits derived from long genetic selection, and you think you can change them with only your good will, then DO NOT BUY OR ADOPT ME.
I’m a dog from the 21st century, yes, but deep inside me, the one who fought, the one who hunted, the one who pulled sleds, the one who guided and protected a herd still lives within.
So think **very** carefully before you choose your dog. And think about getting two, rather than one, so I won't be so very lonely waiting for you all day. Eight or ten hours is just a workday to you, but it's an eternity for me to be alone.
