Depp’s wife gets court summons over dog breach

Actor Johnny Depp’s wife, Amber Heard, has been issued with a Commonwealth court summons in relation to the importation of the pair’s dogs, Pistol and Boo.

The dogs were returned from Australia to the United States by private jet, in May, when agriculture minister, Barnaby Joyce, threatened to have them put down.

It was alleged that quarantine procedures were ignored when the couple arrived in Australia to film the latest Pirates of the Caribbean movie on the Gold Coast.
