A woman is charged with intentionally beating an animal.
30-year-old Jessica South is accused of punching a 9-week-old puppy in the head.
The owner told police they found the puppy lifeless after leaving the dog with South.
At first, South told the puppy’s owner it had fallen off the couch.
She later admitted to punching the puppy because it peed on the floor.
Animal Control told officers the puppy showed signs of brain trauma and possible nerve damage.
