County: Augusta

Disposition: Alleged

Alleged: Tanya D. Harris

On Saturday, police again were called to Tanya D. Harris' home after a neighbor alerted authorities that her dog, another pit bull-mix, had reportedly been left to fend for itself on the back porch for three days with no food, water or shelter. A mattress was placed against a set of stairs to prevent the dog from escaping, according to a police report.

Hammer obtained arrest warrants for Harris on Tuesday afternoon. She is charged with inadequate care and inadequate care second offense, along with a charge of failing to vaccinate her dog.
