Sentence: 30 months driving disqualification (reducible with course), 12-month community order with 100 hours unpaid work, 5 years disqualification from owning a dog, £50 costs to RSPCA, £95 victim surcharge
Raimonda Burkauskaite failed to seek veterinary treatment for her Yorkshire terrier dog Gucci's fractured front leg for six weeks after it was first noticed limping on April 10, 2021. Despite being advised by police of available charities like the RSPCA to help with the £1,000 treatment cost, she took no action, leading to the leg's amputation. The dog was seized by police around April 17, 2021, and renamed Freddie. Separately, on April 17, 2021, in Wisbech Road, she was arrested for drink-driving after being pulled over for erratic driving, recording 134 micrograms of alcohol per 100ml of breath (limit 35).
