The discovery of an emaciated dog, found at a gas station in Sarasota, has led to charges against a Bradenton, Florida woman. According to NBC 2 News, the skeletal dog had an embedded microchip which led the authorities to 21-year-old Brittany Osborne.
Osborne had multiple stories for investigators – first, she claimed that the four-year-old dog, named “Adria,” had run away from home a month earlier. The woman then changed her story and told the authorities that she had given the gaunt pit bull mix to a friend to “get rid of” because she couldn’t afford vet care.
The friend turned out to be the “good Samaritan” who initially claimed to have found the dog at the Sarasota gas station. The dog’s dismal condition indicated that she had been neglected and confined to a small space.
Adria has a new name, “Hope,” and she is being cared for by animal services, reports CBS 12 News. The woman accused of neglecting her so badly is facing felony animal cruelty charges and she is banned from owning or “being around” animals.

Where did this pit bull end up after being stolen from a shelter? Watch the video here.
Looks like someone needs to take few meals away from her!!!!!
Sheri, you made my day, I was thinking the same thing, what a horrible human being. dog food is cheap, may not be the best, But no animal deserves to starve to death.
Throw the Book at Her.
Sure looks like Brittney Osborne had enough money to feed her fat ass. She should be banned from food for a month.
My God she needs to be starvedone to death the BITCH!!!
SMH: this POS owner looks overfed herself……
OMG: how can one eat knowing your furbaby needs food??? Bible tells us to care for our animals BEFORE caring for ourselves……
Deserves to burn in Hell forever for her cruelty…..
I feel so badly this furbaby suffered……
I hope a new furever home will treat this treasure as a beloved family member.
IMHO this POS owner should be given a harsh, long prison term (hopefully it will clear off the smug smirk on her fat ugly face)……
Certainly looks like this “thing” hasn’t been without food has she? Bread and water for her and let her see how gaunt she will be (although from her picture, it would take a which to be in the condition her dog was in. Glad the dog was given to a shelter and hope a rescue or family help her become the wonderful dog she can be.
My Lord why, was this,young girl so evil to her pup. I can see,why she was,not feeding or taking care of him. Look at her, that is why is fat, she was over feeding her self. Selfish bitch. Sending prayers with love and prayers to Hope. Lady hope you have no peace in your heart, mind and soul and nightmares for he rest of your sorry ass life.
Doesn’t look like Brittany Osborne missed a meal…..POS.
Disgusting! This ugly heartless bitch needs to be punished and put away for a long time. I’m glad she is banned from owning and being around animals.
[…] the midst of a heat wave, two dogs in Toledo, Ohio, were left to suffer in the scorching sun. According to Thursday’s ABC 13 News, one of the dogs was found tethered […]
She couldn’t give the dog any food but it looks like she wasn’t skipping any meals.
I hope she get a fine and jail time!!!! What an evil loser!
She’s definitely not missing any meals that fat pig she needs a lot of jail time
You fat fckn heifer!!!!!!HE needed the food!!!Not you fat ass
Something that I’ve always noticed when I see a starving dogs owner is how very well nourished they are! Have u ever noticed that? I must say if all I had was a small amount of food u csn bet ur next breath that my dogs would be fed first,if I had to do without then so be it!! OMG! I hope this OVER fed owner gets a jail sentence! POS
She is a complete disgrace to mankind. She obviously does NOT know what it is like to miss a meal. This PORKER fed her fat ugly face day in and day out without giving this poor dog a bone. Put her in jail for this cruelty along with the abuse of putting the dog in too confined a space. GROSS PIG.
EVERYONE ON HERE I WAS THINKING EXACTLY THE SAME THING. THIS UGLY FAT BITCH STUFFED HER FUCKING FACE BUT STARVED THIS POOR DOG. I WANT TO SLAP THE SMILE OFF THIS BITCH’S FACE AND STARVE HER TO DEATH.
Just look at her big, bloated, ugly face. She makes sure she gorges her belly a plenty every day. It’s times like this when “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” sounds like the only kind of fitting justice. The hard-hearted, twisted nincompoop needs serious consequences, as ALL animal abuser do. When the courts start making these perps pay and suffer significantly and thoroughly, we will see the myriad cases decrease dramatically.
Ignorant vicious bitch!
Fat ass pig, i bet she made the dog watch her eat. Bitch I hope one day in life you have nothing to eat.
This is a piece of shit! Look at her she has not misssed any meals! This poor dog has gone thru hell! She must be sent to prison and never allowed to have another animal!
Anyone who could commit such atrocities is a sociopath. Not sure what the penalties are there but in almost all instances it usually amounts to a slap on the wrist. I am sure there is a lifetime of misery ahead for those who come in contact with this monster. Please pray that the vulnerable like this sweet dog are spared from the clutches of this narrsisst who will I’m sure will try to appear normal while roaming amoungst us
Let’s hope the judge has some backbone and puts her away for a looonnngggg time! You’ll have a great life now Hope!
