A woman caught on video hitting her puppy multiple times was sentenced on Tuesday to eight years of probation.
Havanna Dejonet Miller, 23, had accepted a guilty plea in late September of this year after she pleaded no contest to a third-degree felony animal cruelty charge.
In addition to the probation sentence, Bexar County Judge Stephanie Boyd said that Miller must serve 150 hours of community service and pay a $2,000 fine.
Miller also can’t own any pets or be employed as a home healthcare provider, Boyd said.
Earlier this year, a video showed Miller striking her 3-month-old poodle, Thanos, on a West Side apartment balcony multiple times.
Miller was later arrested without incident and was formally indicted in February, according to San Antonio Animal Care Services (ACS).
