It’s nothing wrong with little Trig standing on his doggy. That happens. Kids dress the cat up in doll clothes. It’s not wrong to giggle, or even take a photo.
But it is really dumb to send that picture out to the whole world, especially to consider it an example of morally good behavior. Trig’s determination is to be praised, but he needs to learn to treat animals with respect, which he will I’m sure as he grows.
I love Sarah and hate it when she appears to confirm what most of the country thinks about her, that she is stupid. I’m glad she doesn’t care what other people think, but that doesn’t makes a good politician.
Post 4 is for you.
It is sweet when the photos of children standing on dogs is part of the DeGeneres show site.
This seems quite less obviously wrong than what Mitt Romney allegedly did with the family Irish Setter and a rooftop dog carrier and a car wash. Nobody is holding the dog in place and there’s not the slightest perturbed look on its phizzog.
Baloney. Kids have been standing on dogs for more years than I have been alive. Dogs are smart. If hey are bothered, they walk away. This is his service dog, I think. Try to hold one when it does not want to be held. My oldest nephew is 2 years younger than I. He was born with a birth defect. His right leg had to be amputated when he was a toddler. His dog let hm do that and if he were outside and got too hear their lake, the dog kept him from getting too close to the water. As a kid, that fascinated me. Dogs are smart and they will let their humans know when they do not like stuff.
I think Sarah took the picture thinking its an adorable pic of her son with his dog..and it is cute..just like when Ellen Degereres posted a similar picture on her facebook page..its a cute pic of a girl and her dog..now I can understand if this were a small dog, and Im a dog owner I have two dogs myself, they are small so obviously I would never recommend this being done to a small dog..but this is a little boy having fun with his dog, and its absolutely harmless..and I think that is what Sarah thought as well so she took the picture. I dont think she sits around saying to herself “Gee what should I post to piss people off today” its New Years Eve, and she posted an innocent photo of her son and best buddy..I thought it was cute. My cousins do the same with their white lab Maggie, its completely innocent
We adopted a 3 yr old boxer while our daughter and granddaughter lived with us. Sweetest dog anyone ever saw. One day not long after we got her she and the 3 yr old disappeared into the bedroom. A while later they came out. The boxer he on a pink tutu and was prancing and all smiles. Lol. She wore that tutu most of the day.
