He has now been sentenced to 16 months for the burglary and a further six months for drugs charges.
Kiri's owner, who does not want to be named, said: "I am gutted by what has happened. Kiri appears to be fearful and is following me everywhere about the house as if she needs constant reassurance.
"She is my daily companion. I just can't believe that anyone could be so heartless and cruel to an animal."
