GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — A woman whose dog died in a hot car at Lambeau Field is faced with a felony charge.

Fifty-five-year-old Debbie Rohloff made an initial appearance in Brown County Circuit Court on Tuesday and was released on a signature bond. Rohloff is charged with a felony count of mistreating an animal resulting in death and a misdemeanor charge. WLUK-TV says she was ordered not to have any animals.

Police were called to Lambeau Field July 12 where the golden retriever was found unresponsive in the car. The dog was taken to an animal hospital and pronounced dead.
