ISPCA removes 86 dogs from illegal breeder

More than 100 dogs and puppies — some of them in very poor condition — have been rescued from an illegal dog-breeder and from a private home.

Eighty-six dogs, including 23 puppies, were removed by ISPCA inspectors from an unlicensed dog-breeder in Roscommon, following a visit by the inspector and the county dog warden, last Friday.
