At Sighthound Strolls we are in the process of compiling a list of countrywide dog walks.
So, please tell us about your favourite places to walk your dog in Ireland!

Camp Beach, Co. Kerry. A great beach that is always deserted so the dogs can go wild racing up and down. Close to Dingle for the mandatory Cappucino and slab of cake!!

Just found out people have started complaining about the amount of dogs off the lead so it might not be the best place in the future for a walk.

All dogs on our walks stay onlead so that wouldn't be too much of a problem Ann. Is it a big place? I've often heard people mention it but have never been

oh, I second the Memorial Gardens - there seems to be an endless supply of sighthounds there too! Good choice Ann - Do you know Vlad and his lurcher Sita? They're always up there!

Hmmm, sounds like it could be some fertile recruiting grounds for the walks!!

Up until recently I let my Lurcher off the lead up in Three rock but she was having so much fun she bumped into a snapped off tree branch and end up having surgery on her shoulder. I would certainly recommend on lead walks up there. Lovely view at the top.

Connor's a dote isn't he! I wasn't sure if I should mention him on a sighthound forum, given that he's a half-pint!  That's a lovely park - hopefully we'll bump into you up there at some stage. |
