🐾 April Volunteers of the Month – Ballypines Dog Ranch 🐾

This month, we are so proud to recognize something extra special here at Ballypines… our Volunteers of the Month — Graham Hankin, and Gemma & Trevor Howell.

At Ballypines Dog Ranch, we are incredibly fortunate to have volunteers like Graham, Gemma, and Trevor. They show up consistently, are incredibly responsible, and bring so much joy—not only to our team, but to every single dog they spend time with.

Their presence is felt in all the best ways. Whether they are helping behind the scenes, supporting daily routines, or simply giving love and attention to the dogs, they do it all with genuine care, enthusiasm, and heart.

What stands out most is their work ethic, devotion, and eagerness to learn. They take pride in what they do, they are receptive, they grow, and they truly want to do right by the dogs and the team. That mindset is something we deeply value here at Ballypines.

We are beyond thankful for the time, energy, and positivity they bring into the barn each week. They are a true part of what makes Ballypines such a special place, and we always look forward to their visits.

💛 Graham, Gemma, and Trevor — thank you for everything you do. We appreciate you more than you know.

Spring break brought us so many wagging tails and happy faces 🐾☀️ We loved every cuddle, play session, and goofy grin last week! Thank you for trusting us with your pups while you were away—nothing makes us happier than seeing them feel right at home 💛

Happy Easter!🐣

🐾 Ballypines Dog Ranch – Employee of the Month (March) 🐾
We are so excited to recognize Grace Tippett as our Employee of the Month for March!
Grace has truly been putting in the work behind the scenes and in the yards to grow her skills and strengthen the care we provide every single day. From her attention to detail with cleaning and kitchen responsibilities, to the way she shows up for the dogs with patience, consistency, and heart—her effort has not gone unnoticed.
What stands out most about Grace is her mindset. She has been incredibly receptive to feedback and genuinely committed to improving, which is exactly what helps us continue to raise the bar here at Ballypines. That willingness to learn, adjust, and keep getting better is what turns a good team member into a great one—and Grace is doing just that.
Grace, your work ethic, positive attitude, and dedication to the dogs make a real difference. We are proud of you and grateful to have you on our team.
⭐ Keep shining—you’re a rock star! ⭐
