COURT FINDS COURTNEY ARCHER OF BARNSEY GUILTY OF ANIMAL NEGLECT

Courtney Jade Archer, born on 16 September 1997 and formerly residing on Rosebery Street, Stairfoot, Barnsley S70, now living at Grange View, Blacker Hill, Barnsley S74 0RB, was convicted in 2025 for neglecting her dog. Archer failed to provide proper treatment for her Staffordshire bull terrier, named Sheba, who was suffering from skin and ear diseases.

Archer, a mother of three, admitted to three counts of neglect related to Sheba. A subsequent investigation led by the RSPCA revealed the dog's condition, which included untreated skin and ear issues. It has not been reported whether Sheba survived or received appropriate care.

Regarding sentencing, Archer was ordered to pay £400 in court costs along with a £114 surcharge. Additionally, she has been banned from keeping any animals for five years, a restriction that will last until February 2030.
