Galway Bay fm newsroom - A Connemara-based animal charity says it can't find the words to explain how overwhelmed it is with dog surrender requests.
Madra has stopped taking calls from outside Galway and Mayo as a result of the massive backlog.
It's blaming the cost of living crisis, shortage of appropriate accommodation and sudden re-opening post covid for the problem.
Founder Marina Fiddler says dogs with behavioural issues are coming into them on a regular basis because of those issues.
