Construction is progressing well on what will be Clare's first publicly owned dog park, with the new facility in Shannon now expected to be completed by mid-July.  

Ground preparation works are underway, and the project is being hailed as an important new amenity for local dog owners and the wider community.  

With demand for dog parks growing and facilities becoming increasingly popular around the country, the question is whether Shannon could be the first of many such developments across Clare.  

To discuss the project and what it could mean for the county, Alan Morrissey was joined by Shannon Fine Gael Councillor Tony Mulcahy.
