A woman banned from keeping animals for life breached her order twice. Police say that Rachel Baker of Buckley Road Leamington was given a lifelong ban from keeping any animals in order to protect them from future harm.

But Leamington officers say the 50-year-old breached her conditions twice within the last year. On November 16 she was convicted of breaching a disqualification order.

This was related to a dog she had. After failing to attend her last court hearing, police say Baker was arrested.

Within a week and put before the court where she was convicted. She was not given a prison sentence, but was ordered pay £1,000 in compensation.

"The little dog in question continues to be safeguarded by Warwickshire Police in a 5 star facility where he has made lots of new doggy friends, the Leamington police team said.
