A 29-year-old Dublin woman has been sent forward for trial to the Central Criminal Court accused of engaging in a sex act with a Rottweiler cross breed dog but she cannot be named in media coverage, a judge has ordered.

The woman is accused of a single offence contrary to section 61 of the 1861 Offences Against the Person Act. The charge states it is alleged she committed an act of buggery with the dog at her home on a date in December 2019.
