A Lockhart animal breeder is awaiting sentencing after being found guilty of animal cruelty charges.
CJ Tobler was found guilty by a jury in Caldwell County court on June 21 of animal cruelty in a case stemming from a July 28, 2015 arrest that occurred after a former caretaker working on his 50-acre ranch said she discovered a badly wounded bulldog in a back room of the house.
Sentencing is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. July 26 at the Caldwell County Justice Center.
