1 Pet Ownership & Buyer Behaviour Data by: Amárach Research PetAware Project
2 Background & Objectives April 13 Amárach Research commissioned to conduct a survey - 3 cat and dog owners and 3 non pet owners. The survey focused on the areas of well being in relation to pet ownership, animal welfare, the spaying/neutering and microchipping of cats and dogs. The objective of this research was to provide solid statistics and trends in relation to animal welfare and cat and dog ownership in Ireland.

10 Reasons why didn t choose Welfare group / Pound Cat owners (18) Dog owners (181) I wanted a kitten/puppy Did not choose to adopt a cat The adoption process is too difficult I don t know very much about pet adoption Don t know what you will get with a sheltered animal I did not want a second hand cat/ dog Feel animal from welfare group might be vicious or have something wrong with them Offered a cat/dog from elsewhere I wanted a pedigree dog I don t know the history of the animal Did not have desired breed (Q11)

19 How Many Dogs are there in Ireland? Data taken from UCD study* 9 CSO 11 Pound statistics 1 Amarach Research 13 Demography of the pet dog and pet cat Population on the island of Ireland and human factors influencing pet ownership Martin Downes, Mary J. Canty, Simon J. More 19
20 Dog numbers in Ireland From the UCD research of 9 we know that: 35.6 of households in ROI have one or more dogs CSO 11 identified 1,658,43 households 35.6 = 59,334 households with one or more pet dogs 13 Amarach Research indicates there are 1.5 dogs per household = 885,51 dogs That s a lot of dogs!
21 Dog Numbers in Ireland 8,+ dogs in Ireland! Conservatively if there is 1 Natural attrition annually (death by old age, sickness, injury, lost etc.) There is a demand of approximately 8, dogs annually in ROI 1
22 Meeting The Demand Based on pound statistics & UCD research it is estimated that welfare groups and pounds are rehoming 1 of that number From UCD study - approximately 4 of welfare/ pound dogs are transferred abroad. Therefore - up to 7, dogs annually in Ireland being supplied by breeders, breeding establishments, unwanted litters thorough a variety of channels
23 Summary Even though respondents perception of online channels is low, online has become a prominent channel for research and purchase of pets. People are choosing to adopt animals from welfare groups because they want to rescue an animal. Respondents said they would not adopt from a welfare group as they would want a younger animal and they are uncertain about the history and temperament of the animal. Spontaneous awareness of animal welfare groups is low, however when prompted awareness was high. Overall perception of animal welfare groups is high.
24 THANK YOU Our aim with the research was to have data that wasn t anecdotal. Even if every welfare group/pound rehomed every animal in their care, then we would still have a huge shortfall in demand and the need to regulate breeding and improve welfare standards is paramount. 4
