An Arizona woman put her dog between herself and law enforcement over the weekend with predictably disastrous results, police say.

Mary Clifton, 39, stands accused of myriad crimes, according to Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office records, including one transportation violation and two counts of failure to appear. Two other counts against her are referenced in jail records, however, they are not spelled out.

She also faces charges of aggravated assault against a police officer and resisting arrest, according to the Phoenix Police Department.
