A Jack Russell terrier named Kim that was ordered to be put down after biting a woman has been given one last chance to live.
Owner Donal Rogers, an 85-year-old retired guard, was granted a reprieve on the final order for destruction for his dog at the Circuit Court in Athlone yesterday.
His beloved six-year-old dog Kim was initially ordered to be put to sleep after she bit a woman on the leg who was passing Mr Rogers' home near Strokestown, Co Roscommon, on March 6.
