The DSPCA has called for more supports as its waiting list surges with people looking to surrender pets.
The animal charity explained that factors such as the cost of living crisis were tying in to people's difficulties in accommodating animals. They said other animal charities are experiencing similar challenges nationwide and needed urgent assistance.
The DSPCA added that although the situation is not yet at crisis point, it could easily worsen. The charity's spokesperson Gillian Bird previously told Dublin Live the centre was at capacity, which was putting a strain on staff.
