Bloodsports enthusiast Booth had denied causing blunt force trauma and physical violence to a Belgian Malinois known as Chase, but was found guilty by magistrates.

The court heard the offence, which would have caused “unnecessary suffering” to the dog, took place at Menheniot Playing Fields in April 2019.

An application was made by the RSPCA for Booth to be disqualified from owning dogs, on speculation that she might repeat her behaviour in the future.

But the court heard that the incident was a “one-off” and that Booth apparently shows high competence in training dogs and uses Chase as a working dog.

The court also heard that Booth “requires Chase for her security and other work. Chase is key to her livelihood. For her to be able to work in the future Miss Booth needs Chase.”

The attachment between Booth and her dog was also referenced.

Sentencing: community order; six-week curfew. Ordered to pay a total of £1,335. Not banned from keeping animals.

  1. No chance… This girl dedicates most her life to her dogs.. I’ve never known her be cruel to any of her dogs

    1. Her conviction says otherwise. There must’ve been enough evidence for her to be found guilty.
