Say hello to Percy, one of the adorable Irish Guide Dogs puppies proudly sponsored by Rosie & Jim!

Thanks to his puppy raiser Eva in Waterford, we've got a delightful update and some heartwarming photos of Percy enjoying his beach adventures in Tramore.

At 13 weeks old, Percy is already showing us his unique personality. He's a big, sensitive fellow who dives headfirst into new experiences - from bounding around to seeking cuddles for reassurance.
Eva shares,

"Percy is fantastic around people, other dogs, and even our cat. He's a quick learner and hasn't shown any major fears, even during his first trip around Tesco!"

Brave and curious, Percy is acing his early socialisation tests.
But like all youngsters, he has his moments - like deciding to sit mid-walk if the route isn't to his liking!  His toilet training is going splendidly, and he's a fan of sleeping in a bed over a crate.
One of Percy's favourite things? Relaxing by the fireplace in the evenings, watching 'In the Dog House' on TV. He's a true cuddler and loves to be right on your lap.
He's already comfortable in his training jacket and loves car rides and outings. Eva says, "I could go on forever!" - and we absolutely love hearing every bit about Percy's journey!

Join us in cheering on Percy as he continues his journey to becoming a guide dog. We're so proud to be part of his story and grateful to Eva for her amazing work.

Susan O’Keeffe has Motor Neurone Disease, a progressive condition that affects how messages are sent to the muscles.  She can’t speak any more and has very limited mobility; she can type with one finger. Even though she has a very serious illness and is facing life’s end far too early, her focus is on helping others.  She has generously offered to help Our Lady’s Hospice & Care Services to raise funds for the build and fit-out of 36 new single, state-of-the-art, palliative care bedrooms at the Hospice in Harold’s Cross.  

We received a remarkable letter from Susan, telling us her amazing story, and the incredible benefit the Hospice at Blackrock is to her and other’s in a similar place to her.

We, at Rosie & Jim, were humbled to be able to donate €250 to the Hospice for these crucial building works.  

Rosie & Jim are pleased to have donated cases of our chicken products to Cross Care - a great charity supporting those most in need with Love, Respect & Excellence.

Some early photos of our sponsored puppies from the homes where they are being socialised. Normally this happens at HQ in Cork but with Covid restrictions and with the pups all being born in Kildare, it was felt it would be better to keep them close by and have volunteers help with their social skills. This is an extra step this year so some nice bonus images before they head to their puppy raisers in a few weeks’ time.

Melt your heart cuteness!

ArtoHuntleigh Maxislide Sheets and Tubes - Rosie & Jim Chicken ProductsRosie & Jim recently sponsored new maxislide sheets and tubes for the children in LauraLynn – Ireland’s Children’s Hospice. This flat sheet sliding system is essential to allow our carers to perform a wide range of handling manoeuvres for our children, simply and safely, removing risk of injury to both the child and the carer.

We needed a large selection of these in different shapes and sizes to enable safe manoeuvring of all our children.

Rosie & Jim sponsored the full order!

Rosie & Jim have donated €2,000 to Colaiste Iosagain Portarlington.
