WOMAN CHARGED WITH FELONY FOR DUMPING PUPPY

(Preble County, OH)--A Preble County woman appeared in court Tuesday and now faces felony cruelty to animals after a horrible case of abuse.  26-year-old Kayla Brown allegedly put a beagle puppy in a small crate and dumped it last month on Verona Road in 25-degree-weather.  The crate was found on its top with the dog still inside.  A vet determined that the puppy was malnourished and dehydrated.  Brown was arrested on Monday at her home.  Brown is now being held on a $25,000 bond.
