A little Jack Russell-type dog bit a young woman on the leg as she tried to defend her own dog from attack at the Marina Market, and now the owner has been warned he will have to pay more compensation to her.

Radim Hradsky, of Lower Glanmire Road, Cork, pleaded guilty at Cork District Court to failing to have his dog under effectual control and not having a dog licence.
