Ozzy - Meath Nose

Introducing the Meath Nose of Tralee! Ozzy is a rescue dog from one of our many amazing Irish rescues, Cara Rescue. Despite having an extremely difficult start to life where he was found starved, alone and tied up, this pup is one of the happiest and friendliest you'll ever meet!

Ozzy's playfulness hasn't just benefited his humans by keeping them endlessly entertained but it has also benefited the foster doggies that Ozzy has welcomed into his home with nothing but pure excitement! 

Ozzy is a social, dog about town and you can find him sitting outside schools in the morning being greeted by lots of pets or out on the town over the weekend in our dog friendly locals. No matter where you meet him, you’ll be greeted with a goofy grin and waggy tail. This spirit and character would make Ozzy the perfect Nose of Tralee! 

We are beyond ecstatic that Ozzy has been voted the Meath Nose and we can’t thank everyone enough for their support! Best of luck to all the wonderful contestants x

Follow us over on Instagram (@oz_the_rescue) to see our “Dog Friendly Meath” series that we’ll be sharing as the Meath Nose.
