Dawson was pregnant with triplets at the time, and all three babies survived the incident.
The following weeks, Dawson was on trial, ending with her pleading guilty for animal cruelty and attempted murder, however, she couldn't be committed until much later, when she gives birth to her triples. Jamie Shertick soon responded to people calling him out on beating a woman, saying "SHE TRIED TO MURDER ME, HOW COME YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND?!?! [sic]" and mentioning his dog's death in her hands.
