Hundreds of dog attacks on humans and other animals have been reported to councils in the past five years, according to new figures obtained by the Irish Independent.The attacks involved a range of breeds – including those not on the restricted-breed list, such as terriers, German Shepards, Jack Russel's, Collies and Bull Mastiffs.
Gillian Bird, Head of Education and media, DSPCA spoke to Newstalk Breakfast with a reaction to these figures.
