An incident where a pony was ridden through a packed pub is being investigated by the Dublin Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (DSPCA).
The footage was captured on a mobile phone and shows a man riding the pony through the Cabra House pub also known as the Oasis pub in the north inner-city.
He is cheered on by customers before exiting on to Fassaugh Avenue.
DSPCA spokeswoman Gillian Bird said she was trying to find when the footage was shot.
