ISPCA Inspector McCormack told the court that Ms O’Reilly, who was present at the property, agreed to surrender the dogs into ISPCA care. However, when Inspector McCormack spoke to Mr O’Reilly by phone, he objected to the dogs being taken from the property. Convicting the defendants, Judge Andrews said she had seen the ISPCA photographs and was troubled by the condition of the dogs. She made an order disqualifying the couple from owning dogs for five years. She also fined the defendants €500 each and ordered that they pay €805.07 in costs.
