• Man granted more time to appeal dog destruction order in Roscommon Order to destroy a dog (animal welfare) · Co. Roscommon

  A five-year-old Jack Russell named Kim was the subject of an order to be destroyed after a bite incident in a remote part of County Roscommon. A woman in her 60s, the plaintiff, demanded the dog be put down, and Strokestown District Court granted the order, which was upheld by Longford Circuit Court earlier in 2022. Donal, a man from Roscommon, made a successful plea in July 2022 for more time to prepare an appeal. Over 47,000 people signed a petition seeking leniency for the dog, which has no previous history of causing injury according to its owner.
