The Big Bark dog podcast is Irelands Number 1 dog related podcast. Each episode, Darragh and his trusty sidekick pups Bruno, Milly & Roxy bringing all the canine stories to you, with the biggest interviews with pet professionals.
Once again, this week, we welcome back Dr. Ashleigh Bugler from Treaty Veterinary Clinic to our health hub - Dr. Bugler this week chats itchy skin conditions including hot spots, how to handle these and how to know if your dog is suffering from issues with their anal glands and how you can provide them with some relief.
Since the announcment of the XL bully ban by Minister Humpreys, we've been contacted by a number of dog owners who have told us there is a changing attitude from the public towards their dogs and not just toward restricted breeds either. There appears to be a general widespread fear of all dogs by a specific cohort of society, which is coming from mainstream media fuelling the fear along with local councillors such as DLR council and most recently Cllr Gavan of Limerick Council calling on Mayor John Moran to introduce bye laws to deal with what she says are over 70 restricted breeds. The spread of misinformation from councillors is causing an unease among both the public and dog owners. We discuss why councillors need to display effective control of the information that they share and why our local authorities and the dog hating cohort of society need to be re-educated on matters surrounding dog control.x
