19. A Voice for Dogs in Ireland Animal Friendly

Dog Advocacy Ireland is a dedicated group that campaigns for meaningful change regarding dog welfare protection in Ireland.

There are thousands of dogs in puppy farms all around Ireland, to the extent that we are known as the puppy farm capital of Europe. These dogs lead utterly miserable lives while their pups are easily bought and then discarded after a few months or years.

It is left to the Irish animal rescue groups to deal with this excessive dog population and they are now under tremendous pressure. An overhaul of Ireland’s dog breeding legislation is crucial and I talked to Zara about this, as well as other DAI objectives.

If you love dogs then you'll want to hear about their work and maybe even get involved yourself!
