The Gardaí need a dedicated animal safety unit, according to the charity My Lovely Horse.
The organisation has been highly vocal on the need for more animal safety measures in the wake of the death of a horse while pulling a sulky in Clonmel recently.

The animal rescue group has submitted a petition to the Committee on Public Petitions and the Ombudsmen for the unit to be introduced.
Co founder of the charity Martina Kenny says this is the next issue they will be focusing on.
Shed has also said that she hopes the Agriculture Minister is serious about future change. This is after Minister Martin Heydon condemned animal cruelty in the wake of a protest in Clonmel against sukly use on public roads.
