The owner of the dog – Patrick Donoghue of 3, Rosemount, Templemore – appeared before Thurles District Court this week.

On hearing evidence from the farmer Judge Joanne Carroll convicted Patrick Donoghue for an offence under Section 9 of the Control of Dogs Act 1986 as his dog was worrying livestock and attacking sheep.

She ordered him to pay €650 in compensation within six months or face a two month prison sentence.
