SAN ANTONIO — A woman caught on video striking her dog with a leash at least 17 times on a west-side apartment balcony has learned her punishment.

23-year-old Havanna Miller was sentenced Tuesday to eight years of probation and a $2,000 fine after accepting a guilty plea to animal cruelty charges.

Miller will also be required to attend anger management classes and community service.
