People just need something to be outraged about.
#1 Trig weighs about 40lbs or so? If even.
#2 That is a Lab. If it was in pain it would have gotten up and moved away. The will tolerate a lot but when they have had enough they let you know.
#3 That is a Lab - I’m sure it has done more than it’s fair share of standing on/ laying on not just Trig but the rest of the family.
#4 All the pictures I have seen he always had his hands on the counter.
#5 How many times has the tail of death hit the kid? If you have ever been smacked with the tail of a Lab or Golden you know what I am talking about.
We have a lab mix puppy 7 months old tomorrow. is favorite thing is to lay either on me or my wife. He only weighs 40lbs but when he plops down. He actually walks behind your feet when you are sitting and rolls forward so you rub his belly with your feet.
