Local Councillor Condemns Criminals Who Drowned Two Dogs In Tipp Village

Tipperary Councillor Micheal Anglim is condemning the criminals who drowned two small dogs during a residential burglary in Ardfinnan on Saturday February 11^th.

The Fianna Fáil councillor expressed the view that being tied to a tree and horsewhipped would be too good for the culprits.
