Rosie & Jim are delighted to sponsor Fisherstown Festival 2016!

Taking place at the end of June, The Fisherstown Festival is held at the picturesque surrounding of the Fishermans Thatched Inn, at Fisherstown Co. Laois.
The Fishermans Thatched Inn is located on an ancient crossroads on what was once the main highway between Tara; home to the high kings of Ireland and Cashel. A fitting location for the festival to promote community spirit and involvement, and the rich traditional Irish culture.

Hank

The dogs are now back training properly, albeit with some necessary restrictions in place but none impactful on the dogs at all.

Here is Champ out training in Cork with trainer, Cliodhna. He has his Guide Dog harness and training is all going very well.

Izzy is working with trainer Ciara and is going to soon graduate as a Guide Dog.

Hank has been working with trainer, Martin and he should be able to begin training with the family soon.
Here he is with his blue harness which denotes him as a proud Assistance Dog graduate! He has been matched to a family in Cork who’s son has autism and will begin home training with them in the next week or so. Strict measures will be in place for the trainers as they work with the family and PPE equipment will be used.


We're thrilled to see the first of the three dogs graduate on to one of the programmes! Well done Hank!

Update on our gorgeous little hard working Irish Guide Dogs for the Blind.

Aska - what a cutey, she gets first position this week.

April exploring public transport for the first time, it's a crucial experience for her which went well according to her puppy raiser, Sandra.

And Andrew checking out the shops before restrictions were lifted. It was great to have the shopping centre a little quieter than normal for his first visit but business as usual now for him for his next visit!

Well done to the puppy raisers doing such a good job!
