METHUEN — An animal control officer was investigating a dog trainer months before an online video went viral appearing to show the trainer beating two German shepherds with a PVC pipe.

Last month, Methuen police filed two animal cruelty charges against Madison Eastman, 26, and her ex-boyfriend, Christian Duran, stemming from the video. A lengthy police report, however, also reveals Eastman had been ordered to stop operating a kennel out of her home in May, resulting in her moving her operation out of the city.
