MIRANDA NICOLE WALDMAN arrested for abandoning her dog in parking lot in frigid temperatures

- Pennsylvania, USA -


The Pennsylvania State Police made an arrest in the case of a German Shepherd who was found abandoned on the night of Friday, February 3, 2023, in freezing temperatures.


The dog was found in a crate behind Hobby Lobby on 1901 E. Third Street in Loyalsock Township.

Police in Montoursville responded to the area after being alerted to the situation and found the Voiceless Victim locked inside the crate, malnourished, and lying in feces. On top of the crate were a blanket and a bag of dog food. Troopers took the furbaby to the Lycoming County SPCA shelter and given the condition the dog was in, police investigated this as a case of animal cruelty. Authorities then reached out to the public for information on the dog’s guardian.


On Saturday, February 4, the Lycoming County SPCA wrote in a Facebook post, “As this is a pending investigation case, this animal is legally not ours and, therefore, cannot be listed for adoption until the case is finished and only if the shelter is awarded custody.”


PennLive reports that a spokesperson for the Lycoming County SPCA said that due to the dog being frightened when he/she was brought to the shelter, it has not been possible to examine his/her teeth to determine his/her age.


Authorities arrested 24-years-old MIRANDA NICOLE WALDMAN (pictured – via Facebook), of Williamsport. According to a press release by the Pennsylvania State Police and obtained by Voice For Us, a “Non-Custodial interview was conducted with WALDMAN at PSP Montoursville, where she confessed to being the owner of the dog and leaving it at the location of this incident.”

Given the dog’s overall condition and the fact he/she was left outside in frigid temperatures, troopers say WALDMAN will face animal cruelty charges.

Cold hearted POS! Evidently thinking is not an abusers forte. Cruelty consumes what little brains they have. I pray this beautiful shepherd get better & begins to trust humans once again. The woman deserves prison time.
