EVERETT, Pa. (WTAJ) -- An Everett woman is accused of neglecting a 5-month-old puppy to the point it could no longer use its back legs, according to police.

The Bedford County Humane Society reported possible animal cruelty to Everett police Nov. 5, after they were contacted by Mountain View Animal Emergency in Maryland about 27-year-old Torrie Robison.

According to the criminal complaint, the shelter claimed they were told by medical staff at Mountain View about a 5-month-old puppy who had lacerations over its body and was unable to use its hind legs due to atrophy. Robison allegedly claimed the dog had been stuck under a cage for an unknown amount of time. It was also alleged that the medical staff viewed an older video of the puppy running around from when it was just a few weeks old.
