A man annoyed that his neighbour's dog repeatedly tried to mate with his own pedigree pooches decided to deal with the problem by castrating it.
Eddie Flood used a rubber lamb ring to carry out the deed - a tool ordinarily used for cutting the tails of baby sheep.
The 43-year-old from Donegal, Ireland told a court in Letterkenny that the terrier cross was allowed to roam freely and he'd been forced to remove it from his house more than 20 times.
A few days after he used a set of pliers to put the ring on the dog, the three-year-old animal became unwell and lethargic and its owner realised its testicles had been removed.
Frank McGettigan told the court he was distraught when he made the discovery, explaining that he'd been forced to give away his pet - named Rusty - following the incident out of fear for its safety.
In response to claims by Flood's solicitor that Rusty was a pest from whom 'no dog was safe', the judge asked if any men wandering around the area were also at risk.
New of the castration comes just a day after it emerged German dad Helmut Seifert went to the home of his teenage daughter's 57-year-old boyfriend and removed his testicles with a bread knife.
Helmut explained his actions to police thus: ‘I saw it as my duty as a father.’
