Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture and Food
Dog Control and Sheep-Worrying: Discussion
2:00 am
Mr. John Joe Fitzgerald:
I will give one example. I spoke to a retired dog warden last week who told me that he had lost a lot of the cases he brought to court because the judge felt pity for the dogs. That is just one person. Every part of society needs to be included in this. They all need to stand up and say they have had enough of this. That is from the bottom up, from dog owners on the street to people in courts dealing with the cases that come before them.
