A Texas woman, who calls herself a dog trainer, is facing felony charges for allegedly abusing a puppy. According to CBS Austin News, 59-year-old Lynn Donelle Adams, who calls herself the “Dog Whisperer of Austin,” ran into trouble after a witness claimed that she was choking a puppy in a parking lot.
Adams allegedly lifted the puppy, named “Chloe,” off of the ground until the pup defecated; the pup was said to be wearing a choke collar at the time. An officer who was called to assist also witnessed Adams yelling at the puppy and yanking the puppy through the air with a leash. The woman told the officer that she was training the puppy, who was a biter, and “aggressive,” reported KVUE News.
The officer was able to contact the puppy’s owner, who asked that Chloe be removed from Adams’ possession. This is not the first time that Adams has been accused of abusive behavior towards dogs. In October 2015, a 9-1-1 caller reported that Adams was slamming a small poodle to the ground.
On the Facebook page, Lil Paws Maltese Rescue and Other Petite Paws, there is a scathing accusation against Adams, and a warning for pet owners to “be aware” of her alleged abusive behavior towards dogs.
Adams is facing a charge of cruelty to non-livestock animals for the most recent incident.
Please….NO plea deal, probation, community service, court-ordered “counseling.” I’m talking about meaningful time in the free hotel, big fat fine, and revocation of any licence she may have.
Sorry, and too bad for you. I HOPE YOU GET TIME BEHIND BARS.
Somebody needs to put a choker chain around her neck and slam her around and see how she likes it she’s poor excuse for a human being I hope they throw her butt in jail
LET”S SEE A OFFICER OF THE LAW OF THE NO STAR STATE OF TEXAS stood witness and DIDN”T FILE CHARGES AGAINST THIS BITCH!!!! What the HELL IS THE PROBLEM DOWN THERE !!!

The pup was acting in self defense it sounds like to me. This “dog whisperer” is a joke, a dangerous one. Let’s get the word out on her mean tactics?
Spreading the word on this lamea$$
I cannot believe with all complaints against her that the authorities have done nothing to arrest her.
Well! My Dear My own thoughts are Texas really doesn’t Give ONE Healthy Horse Turd about stray, helpless, shelter, orphaned animals… That state for the most part doesn’t provide good care for shelter dogs and the euthanasia numbers are Sky High in the NO STAR STATE OF TEXAS…. This is one classic and sad example!!!
Well, TBH, Texas is not exactly a stellar government when it comes to caring for it’s human citizens. So I am not surprised.
So VERY TRUE

This same woman did the same thing to another dog she was caring for back in August. Police seized the dog and called the owner. Thank goodness for witnesses. At any rate, she shouldn’t have been able to practice. She’s got serious problems and shouldn’t care for any pet or human. This doesn’t stop at dogs. It’s just easy for her. And keep an eye on what she does next. She’ll try in another state.
Great news she is going to jail
I doubt it.
