Standard Puppy Food vs Large Breed Puppy Food?

Is there really a difference???!!!........ simply put…

YES…We are often asked “What are the differences between a standard puppy food and a large breed puppy food apart from the kibble size?”Due to their adult size, large breed puppies have a different growth curve to smaller breeds and therefore have different nutritional requirements to support optimal growth and development. If large breed puppies grow too rapidly, this can cause serious and debilitating issues with bones, joints and muscles and therefore pet foods that have been formulated specifically for large breed puppies to help and support controlled growth and do

not promote rapid growth.Although genetic factors are one of the largest unavoidable contributors to these issues, appropriate nutrition during puppy hood can help decrease the chance of such conditions developing in predisposed breeds.

We stock many Large Breed Puppy recipes in store and most have been formulated with a lower crude protein and crude fat content compared with standard puppy recipies. This reduced energy density helps to optimise the rate of growth.

A lot of recipies have also been formulated with a balanced level of calcium and phosphorus based on FEDIAF Nutritional Guidelines, as diets with excess levels can lead to

Contact us: communitylocals@gmail.com

excess absorption and development of skeletal malformations.Feeding practice is also a very important factor to take into condersation, we would recommended feeding puppies 4 small meals per day up until 12 weeks of age, then graduating down to 3 times per day from 12 weeks up until 6 months, at which stage you can then drop them down to twice a day. Making sure you are following the suggested daily feeding amounts on the feeding guide to maintain a lean body condition. Over feeding can lead to obesity which puts extra strain on the bones and joints and can lead to other serious health issues.

Selecting a large breed puppy recipe

helps to support healthy growth and development to give your dog the best start in life.To see our full range of Puppy products and indeed to get some help in selecting the right puppy food for your pup, simply pop into us and we will show you a few different options which you can then make an educated decision as to which would suit you and your puppy best.

Have you seen Japanese Knotweed in your area?

Fingal County Council is seeking the public’s assistance in curbing the spread of Japanese knotweed. The local authority is asking the public to record all sightings of Japanese knotweed on public and private property in order to find any remaining stands that have not been recorded so far.

Japanese Knotweed was first introduced to Ireland as a garden plant from Japan in the 19th century. It escaped from gardens and has now spread across Ireland. This invasive species can seriously undermine the structural integrity of roads and buildings.In Fingal, the plant can be found throughout the

county but is particularly abundant in Balbriggan. Fingal County Council is keen to eradicate this invasive species. 184 locations have been identified so far and a treatment program got underway in 2018 with the aim to eradicate the Japanese knotweed from the county.All sightings of Japanese Knotweed in Fingal can be submitted to the County Council by email to biodiversity@ fingal.ie. The Council is asking the public to include a map or a precise location of the stand and ideally include a picture of the plant to confirm if it is Japanese Knotweed.

Finance

Budgeting Smarter - How to have more of your money left over

By Dave Kavanagh Every choice you make, every activity you do, every change you contemplate, are in some way connected to your finances. You have income.

You have expenditure. The aim is that the first one is always greater than the second, that leaves you with “disposable income”.For most people, the income side is relatively constant. So how can you improve the amount you have left over?

On the spending side. The first thing to realise is that most people don’t accurately know the full details of their expenditure. They’ll know some of the main and regular ones, but not all.

You can test this by trying to list everything that you spent last month, then look at what you actually spent. They will rarely match. (Think of the last time you took €50 out of an ATM to buy something for €10, for example, what did the other €40 go on?) So the first step is to undertake a strict monitoring of spending for a month. Every cent spent on anything, whether cash, cards or direct debit. Log it every evening.

After a month, you’ll have something to work with. The first thing you will usually no-tice is that you spent money on things that you really did not need to (and often wish you hadn’t!)

This can help moving forward with reducing spending. But what else can you do? A few tips to cut spending further and hence, improve how

much you have left over each month:Carefully study 3 months’ bank statements. Make sure that you can account for every single transaction. On a regular basis, I encounter people who have been paying for things that they should not be. Direct debits they forgot to cancel. Subscriptions no longer relevant. Doubling up on things like house insurance (happens a lot!). Make a detailed list for grocery shopping (and don’t shop while hungry).

This leads to only buying what you actually need, a lower bill at the till and less throwing out of food gone off. Also, check your receipt after going through the till. “Acci-dental” over-charging is far more prevalent than you may realise. (Since I began keeping record, one store has overcharged me 65 times!) Compare before you shop for larger items. Just because one store has a fridge you want reduced from €950 to €850 in their “Sale”, does not mean another store nearby that does not cur-rently have a sale on, is not selling the same one for €799. A little research can produce big savings. Com-pare utility providers. Whether it’s electricity, gas, broadband, mobile phone service or similar, there can be substantial savings to be had by switching to better deals. Check when car/house insurance renewals ar-rive. Don’t automatically accept a renewal premium without checking around. A few phone calls could save you hundreds of euro.Review premiums on life cover/mortgage protection/serious illness cover.

Especial-ly if you arranged it directly with a bank

or insurance company that could only quote you for their products.

Massive savings can be made doing this, as you pay for them over such a long period.In over 20 years of helping people with their finances, I have never seen anyone NOT make savings by doing the above. If any-one would like the free budget spreadsheet in excel format that will calculate totals as you input them, just email info@financialcompanion.ie with Budget in the subject line. Happy saving!

25th anniversary of municipal arts launched

A major exhibition celebrating the 25th anniversary of Fingal County Council’s diverse, engaging and captivating Municipal Art Collection was officially opened on September 12. Organised by the Fingal Arts Office, ‘Estuary’ was launched by Mayor of Fingal Cllr Eoghan O’Brien at the Draíocht Arts Centre in Blanchardstown with special guest poet, writer and lecturer, Theo Dorgan. The exhibition will continue until November 17.This major exhibition curated by well-known Fingal artists Una Sealy RHA, James English RHA, Joshua Sex and Sanja Todorovic features works by national and international artists, graduates, emerging artists and local artists. The Fingal County Council Municipal Art collection features mostly two-dimensional work such as paintings, drawings, prints and photographs, which date from c1958 – 2018. There are some three-dimensional works which include sculpture, ceramics and mixed media.

Speaking at the launch Mayor of Fingal Cllr Eoghan O’Brien said “I would like to thank all those involved with this exhibition ‘ESTUARY’ and the publication ‘Not in Alphabetical Order 2’, especially our arts staff, the guest curators, and the artists who created these works. Our Arts office continue to lead an ambitious programme of arts activity and strategies which have always sought to push the boundaries of what is expected and bring the best experiences to our

communities.”The second volume of ‘Not in Alphabetical Order’ highlighting the collection’s latest acquisitions was also launched at the opening of ‘Estuary’.In 2008, the first volume was produced and provided a snapshot of work from the collection. Artists were invited to comment on their particular work from the collection which provided an insight in to their creative process and was accompanied by a reflection on its inclusion in the collection by County Arts

Officer Rory O’Byrne.A free public engagement programme for adults, children and young people will coincide with the exhibition. The first of these events takes place on Culture Night on Friday September 20th in Draíocht Blanchardstown with a curator’s tour of Estuary exploring key themes and artworks in this major exhibition. The curators Una Sealy RHA, James English RHA, Joshua Sex and Sanja Todorovic will guide you through the collection.

Halloween and how it evolved over the years

Halloween is on October 31st, the last day of the Celtic calendar. It was originally a pagan holiday, honoring the dead. Halloween was referred to as All Hallows Eve and dates back to over 2000 years ago. All Hallows Eve is the evening before All Saints Day, which was created

by Christians to convert pagans, and is celebrated on November 1st. The Catholic church honored saints on this designated day.While there are many versions of the origins and old customs 8

SWORDS LOCAL-OCTOBER 2019

of Halloween, some remain consistent by all accounts. Different cultures view Halloween somewhat differently but traditional Halloween practices remain the same.Halloween culture can be traced back to the Druids, a Celtic culture in Ireland, Britain and Northern Europe. Roots lay in the feast of Samhain, which was annually on October 31st to honor the dead.Samhain signifies “summers end” or November. Samhain was a harvest festival with huge sacred bonfires,

marking the end of the Celtic year and beginning of a new one. Many of the practices involved in this celebration were fed on superstition.The Celts believed the souls of the dead roamed the streets and villages at night. Since not all spirits were thought to be friendly, gifts and treats were left out to pacify the evil and ensure next years crops would be plentiful. This custom evolved into trick-or-treating. Happy trick – or -treating !

2 large sweet potatoes makes about 30 shapes of varying sizes!

Preheat oven to 200’c.

1.First wash and peel the sweet potatoes.

2.Slice into circles.

3.To speed up cooking time, boil the sweet potato slices for 8 minutes. (The water from boiling could be used as stock for asoup/ casserole as it will contain some nutrients that leached out of the sweet potatoes!)

4.Drain and place the shapes on a baking tray. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of oil and add herbs/spices of your liking! (I like mine with Balsamic vinegar and black pepper!)

5.Bake in the oven for 35-40 minutes at 200’c to get them nice and crispy!
