Peter Banks was originally born in London, England in 1958. He spent over 15 years working in the City of London as a Computer Technical Consultant specialising in Network security.

Being married to an Irish woman he ‘retired’ back to Ireland and has spent the last 12 years rearing Yorkshire Terriers and running the successful www.IrishDogs.ie website which now receives over One Million visitors each year. He now lives in County Kildare in the middle of the countryside with his wife, four Yorkies and two old girls (cats of 15 and 16 years old).

Having had dogs in the family for over twenty five years, he finally decided he had the “right credentials” to actually write about his experiences and to debunk what he considered the inept Training techniques the so-called ‘pet professionals’ were promoting.

He has always promoted responsible dog ownership and firmly believes that the Pet Food industry really isn’t advancing the welfare of animals rather than advancing its own profits. Peter has recently also released his own homemade Dog Food Recipes e-book which is available for $7.
