OK read the whole listing again and found Bailey is a wolfhound, dog.
All my ideas mentioned are dog friendly and safe.

Good to hear you're safe.
I was wondering, do you use this kind of stuff in the USA?

I understand stud walls at the bottom is combustible material. But that also means you can knock part of it to make a proper bell, which will act as a structural part too, if well thought.
But, what us above has also combustible material? I mean, here, the liner showed above is meant for pozzolan, or clay flue elements, or old stone chimneys.
If anything remotely combustible is near'ish, we would use double wall insulated flues.

That would have to be at least 18cm away from any combustible material
But that stuff could at least save your winter.
If there isn't too many flaws in the chimney.

Next IMO) You need a quick safe roof jack installed NOW!!! Don't worry about fixing it all, or even making it pretty. Just get a roof jack installed so you can supplement your heat this winter. All other repairs can wait until spring.

I second the motion. Placing a metal cage or pen around a wood stove helps with dog-proofing. People with toddlers do it all the time.

Love the Irish Wolfhound BTW!
A stove insert might be the easiest, most economical way to go, too.

They're in the business of installing stuff and might have ideas for how to work-around the defects that the sweep doesn't. We moved into a log home 14 months ago with a similarly defective (sounds similar, at least) chimney, in northern Minnesota, so I feel your situation. We had some work done on the house and our GC had a couple specialists come out to examine the situation. They *really* didn't want anyone burning a fire in either fireplace (one on each floor, vertically aligned, but distinct chimneys) but were happy to run high-tech pipe from the top to the bottom and hook them to newly purchased wood-stoves. I'm also a little dubious that it's as dangerous as they made out, since the folks before us were obviously using them, but I can see why they'd be cautious.
