concern for a dog that has been seen roaming freely on a busy road on the birr road area 🚩 The dog appears to be unattended and is regularly close to moving traffic, which puts it at significant risk of injury. It’s wearing a brown collar, main concern is for the dog’s safety, as well as the safety of road users who may have to brake or swerve to avoid it. We’d all much rather see him safely at home than trying his luck with the traffic.
