Letterkenny woman disqualified from keeping animals for 5 years

A Letterkenny woman has been disqualified from keeping animals for five years.

At Letterkenny District Court yesterday, defence solicitor for Ms Chrissie McGinley of Glenwood Park, Letterkenny entered a guilty plea on her behalf to an offence under section 12(1)(a) of the Animal Health and Welfare Act (AHWA) 2013.

The woman was also fined €200.

ISPCA Senior Inspector Kevin McGinley says he was taken aback by the condition of the dog itself:
