Sandy suffers from a chronic skin complaint
Hutchison failed to provide the necessary veterinary treatment for her ten year old lurcher, Sandy, who was suffering from a chronic skin condition.
Scottish SPCA Chief Inspector Hamish Mackintosh said, “We are very pleased Hutchison has admitted this offence as Sandy was caused a great deal of pain and suffering over a prolonged period of time.
“It is now up to the court to decide on an appropriate punishment.”
