K9 would like to say a huge thank you to Wingate School pupils for the huge amount of money they have raised for us. Our president Elsie went to Wingate on the 15th of April and received a cheque for over €2700, this has been raised by the classes of the school. The school organised a sponser spell and all classes took part, money was also raised by selling unwanted toys, books, games etc. This money is much needed by K9 to pay for the food and vet bills. Once again thank you to everyone involved.

Apologies for the lack of updates over the last couple of months. This was due to a few things but including:

  • the accident that I had when my dog’s collar snapped and I was hit in the face when the 5 metre extendable lead retracted back!
  • changes at my ‘day job’ which has resulted in me working many more hours.
  • Hopefully I will be able to get back on track again now, starting with a makeover of this Blog.

    Thanks
