Abandoned-Pups Report False

A woman is facing a criminal charge of filing a false police report after claiming to find a box of eight abandoned puppies in Corbin Park near Post Falls last week. After an investigation was launched, animal control officers determined that the woman had lied about finding the puppies because she wanted to make sure animal control would take them. She has been identified as Mariah F. Eutsler, 20, of Post Falls. Eutsler was reportedly doing a favor for a friend in Spokane. His dog had given birth to the puppies and he was unable to take care of them, so she agreed to help him get rid of them, according to a Kootenai County Sheriff’s Office press release/ Nina Culver , SR.
