The Big Bark is the best canine podcast in Ireland. Each week, we talk to different professionals working in the canine industry across Ireland, such as dog trainers, nutritionists, groomers, behaviour specialists and vets. We will be discussing hot topics with our awesome guests, reviewing the best products, food and treats, the best places to take your dog on a day out and most dog friendly venues in Ireland. We will get out and about to meet with some of the coolest dog owners around and get to chat with their doggies too and we find out about the pawsome bonds they share. Tune in weekly.
