A Florida woman was arrested, charged, and she lost her dogs after a viral video alerted the authorities to animal cruelty. As reported by WFLA News, 26-year-old Michelle Sieber, of Tarpon Springs, was tracked down and arrested after a video surfaced of her choking a complacent dog who was walking with her on a leash.

The video, which was shared widely on social media, shows Sieber walking with a docile dog who she repeatedly chokes by pulling upwards on the leash – pulling the dog’s front legs off of the ground. At several times during the video, the dog appears to be gasping for air.

Towards the end of the video, the man filming approaches the woman and asks her to go “a bit easier” on the dog, and he tells her to stop treating the dog badly. She laughs and seems baffled that “pulling on his collar” is bad. The man informs her that she is choking and hanging him – allegations which she denies. She then tries to give the man her dog, saying “you can have him if you want him.”

Police have charged Sieber with felony animal cruelty – she was taken to the Pinellas County Jail and her dogs were seized.

  1. Michelle Sieber and her mother NEED TO BE CHOKED OUT UNTIL DEAD! I’m sick and tired of these sadistic ass wipes making EXCUSES for their ABUSIVE behavior. Let me be VERY clear: JUST BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH A HARD TIME DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO CHOKE OUT A LIVING BEING…PERIOD! Whoever started this crap of thinking it’s okay to abuse a child or an animal because of HARD times is DEMON spawned for PUKES like Michelle and her arrogant mother to use as a reason to HARM an INNOCENT with NO VOICE! If this bitch can STRANGLE WITH NO REMORSE a dog, SHE CAN DO IT TO HER LITTLE GIRL. STATISTICS back that up 100%.

  2. No Anumial should never ever be abused. I get very sick when my dog gose too the Groomers I water & water for her I couldn’t even sit down I’m a great they might hurt her or even kill her. I love my dog so much I talk too her. I rescue her from a dirty cage as a pup.
