An Eagle Point woman who let three dogs die in a hot car in Chiloquin has been sentenced to 15 days in jail, and a year and a half of probation.

67-year-old Alice Taylor pleaded guilty to two misdemeanor counts of first degree animal abuse.

As part of a negotiated agreement, Taylor will not be allowed to own any domestic animals for 5 years.


 

Klamath Falls, Ore. — An Eagle Point woman accused of leaving three dogs in a hot car until they died appeared in Klamath County Court Wednesday morning.

In June of 2014, 67-year-old Alice Taylor was charged with multiple counts of first-degree animal abuse. Police say three dogs were found dead in her car, which was parked outside a Chiloquin restaurant for 4 hours on a hot day.

Taylor’s lawyer argued in court Wednesday that Taylor was not fit to proceed, and was granted a delay until a mental evaluation can be completed. A jury trial has been scheduled to begin Wednesday.
