ISPCA Launches Urgent Emergency Appeal In Wicklow

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

In response, the ISPCA has launched an emergency appeal for donations and rescue families to adopt a pup.

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.
