[QUOTE="Two Pour Bore, post: 6981480, member: 49511"] How is what you say at odds with what I said? I'm well aware of the kind of stuff you say. And that's the nature of what things were like. Animals as livestock, not your "baby." Still, every place that had working animals also had pet animals, that were allowed sleep in the house and were fed from the kitchen table. Things have changed where there's concern for every animal's life whether they're destined for the abattoir or a tree planted atop their grave in the garden when they die, but to say that means Ireland doesn't have close ties to nature, rural life, or dogs is rubbish. That we didn't elevate animals to the same levels of humans is correct but that was never the point. And it doesn't change the fact that dogs were and still are a part of our heritage and way of life, and banning them from beaches is rubbish and reflects an even worse idea that animals are a mere annoyance and not intricately tied to everything about us for the past two thousand years.
