Popular Cork market to unveil doggy vending machine 

CORK’S first doggy vending machine has opened at the Marina Market.

The vending machine will be stocked full of tasty treats and doggy necessities such as meaty lollipops, squeaky toys, and scented eco-friendly shampoo bars.

The idea is expected to be a hit with the many pet owners who visit the Marina Market with their canine companions daily.

The fun concept is the work of Dec’s Pets, an independent Irish pet store run by Declan and Anna O’Keeffe, and it’s their second vending machine. Their first is in Pye in Dundrum.

“We are so excited to have our Doggy Vending Machines in one of the best venues in the whole of Ireland,” they said.

“This is an exciting opportunity for Dec’s Pets and we would like to thank the team at Marina Market for welcoming us with open arms. Marina Market is at the forefront of Dog Friendliness in Ireland and we a delighted to be a small part of their journey.”

The official launch takes place on Saturday, August 5, at the Marina Market.
