Among other things, the judge ordered her to get enrolled in a GED program, put her on a curfew, ordered her to contact her probation counselor weekly and ordered her to undergo random drug testing.

Investigators say Earles' child was in a baby swing when he was attacked by a puppy as his mother slept.

Tulsa Police say no one knew when the dog was last fed before the attack.    

Earles' case will be reviewed again at the end of April.
