Sub Aqua Club to attempt to recover body of deliberately drowned dog
Athlone Sub Aqua Club is this morning preparing to recover the remains of what appears to be a dog in Coosan Point near the jetty.
The club, on its Facebook page, shared photos posted by one of its members last night.
It appears as if a dog was deliberately drowned in Lough Ree at Coosan Point, having been tied to a rope and block and thrown into the water.
The Sub Aqua Club member concerned advised people not to swim near the jetty until the body is removed.
