🎆🐾 BOONAH SHOW FIREWORKS WEEKEND 🐾🎆

We all love the magic of fireworks ✨ but our four-legged family members don’t always understand what’s happening 💛

With the Boonah Show fireworks happening this weekend, here’s a little reminder to help keep our community dogs safe:

🐶 Bring dogs inside before dark if possible
🏡 Close doors, windows & curtains
📺 Pop on the TV or calming music to soften the noise
🏷️ Check collars, ID tags & microchip details are up to date (just in case!)
💛 Stay calm, our dogs take a lot of reassurance from us

Even confident dogs can surprise us when frightened by sudden loud noises, so a little planning goes a long way.

Enjoy the wonderful Boonah Show 🎡🎆 and thank you for helping look after all the beautiful dogs in our community.

Love from the IronBark DogPark crew 🐕🌿

🐕 LEAD TRAINING COURSE IS BACK! 🐕

Tired of being walked by your dog instead of walking with them? 😅
Pulling, zig-zagging, arm stretching, sudden squirrel launches… this course is for you.

Our popular 5-week Lead Training Course is designed to help dogs (and humans) master calm, connected walking skills in real-world environments.

✔️ Loose lead walking
✔️ Building focus around distractions
✔️ Calm passing of dogs & people
✔️ Better communication between you & your dog
✔️ Confidence for both ends of the leash

👩‍🏫 Led by Nicole, qualified trainer with the National Dog Trainers Federation

📅 Starts Thursday 4th June
⏰ 3:30pm
📍 IronBark DogPark
💰 $200 for the full 5-week course

Small group format so everyone gets support and guidance along the way 🐾

⚠️ Limited spots available, this course regularly books out.

Because walk time should feel enjoyable… not like a CrossFit session 😉🐕

🐾 IMPORTANT UPDATE REGARDING PET SITTING SERVICES…….

Following recent clarification from Scenic Rim Regional Council regarding their interpretation of the Planning Scheme, IronBark DogPark has been advised that even short-term pet sitting or temporary care of dogs at private residential homes may fall under “Animal Keeping” requirements within the Scenic Rim region only.

As a result, we will be transitioning away from offering pet stays within some local carers’ homes while we seek further legal and planning clarification around these requirements.

This unfortunately impacts some of our wonderful local pensioners and home-based carers who have lovingly supported pets within our community. ❤️

Moving forward, we are now looking to expand our:

🏡 HOUSE & PET SITTING TEAM
(Where carers stay in the client’s home instead)

We are seeking:
✔ animal-loving locals
✔ mature-aged carers
✔ semi-retired or retired community members
✔ reliable in-home pet sitters
✔ NDIS support workers with animal experience

This allows pets to remain safely and comfortably in their own homes while owners are away.

If you may be interested in joining our team, please send us a message or email:
📧 [email protected]

We appreciate the community’s ongoing support while we navigate these changing compliance interpretations.

🐾💚 Happy National Volunteer Week to our beautiful volunteer Denise! 💚🐾

Denise brings a wealth of knowledge, kindness and genuine love for dogs to IronBark DogPark, and we are so grateful for everything she does.

At IBDP we truly believe community is built by good humans showing up for one another and volunteers like Dennis are a huge part of that.

The dogs adore her, and we do too. Thank you Denise for being such a valued part of the IBDP family. 🐶✨
