Marie Louise Campbell, and her fiancé David Alonzi reveal the state of the carpets they have had to pull up, and the plasterwork they were forced to remove.
Many of the walls were smeared with what looked and smelled like dog mess.
The carpet was so soaked through with urine that the couple were forced to remove it - then the underlay - and finally the floorboards.
The floor and part of the plaster had to be removed to get rid of the smell, and now the couple are unable to live in the property.
Far from a quiet haven, their garden is now home to a pile of stinking debris.
