It was reported that the incident involved Cavan Councillor Craig Lovett.
However, he said reports of his involvement are "completely false" and his father, Martin, claimed ownership of the dogs.
In a statement to Northern Sound, Cavan County Council said it "will not be issuing a comment at this time as the matter is subject of an ongoing Garda investigation".
