One animal charity has noticed a spike in cruelty and neglect cases against dogs because of an over-population.

It says its four shelters in Wicklow, Donegal, Longford and Mallow are full, so it's having to rent kennel spaces.
Pete the Vet says the over-population has had devastating effects on the charity's resources.
