Members of the public are said to have reported the clips to police and an investigation was launched.
Watson, of Lanark, faces allegations she had an ‘unnatural connection’ with a dog at an address in Bellshill, Lanarkshire, between June and December 2024.
It is claimed she committed the alleged offence while on four separate bail orders.
Watson was not present when the case called at Hamilton Sheriff Court on Tuesday. Her lawyer had written to the court asking for a new date to be set to allow them to receive further instructions from her.
Depute fiscal Daniel Toner told the brief hearing: “There are statements and video footage to be disclosed.
“It is a screen-recording of an online video.”
Watson has made no plea to the allegation against her.
Sheriff John Hamilton KC continued the case without plea until another hearing next month.
Watson was ordained to appear.
