Studies done in the 1990's concluded dogs spayed or neutered under one year of age grew significantly taller than non-sterilized dogs or those not spayed/neutered until after puberty. And the earlier the spay/neuter procedure, the taller the dog.
County Galway is situated in the West of Ireland and is one of Ireland's largest counties. It is one of Ireland's most diverse counties containing the largest Gaeltacht (Irish speaking area) in the country, the largest island community, a vibrant city (Galway City) and some of Ireland's most dramatic mountains.
Located in the heart of Galway Bay, the Aran Islands offer visitors a glimpse into a way of life that has long since disappeared from most of the country. The Islands' raw beauty and charm leaves visitors longing to return again and again. While the South - West coast of the island battles with the Atlantic, the North - East coast offers smooth passage for visitors between the mainland at Ros a' MhÃ­l and the Islands.
