bet that dog gets to share Trig’s cookies and other treats as well.”

Trig and the dog have probably grown up together since the dog was a pup The dog is probably expecting Trig to grab some goodies off the counter for them both to enjoy. An accomplice in crime as in one guy hoisting another on his shoulders to go over a fence or steal warm pie off a window sill.

I have a dog that size and I am way bigger than Trig. I wouldn't stand on her of course, but she is a lot stronger then she looks.

When she goes psycho, which is often at 11 months old. My dog trainer told me to straddle her and hold her with my knees. It takes all I have to hold her.

40 pound kid stands on 35 pound dog. So lets kick his grandma out of office. Ooops, we can’t. She isn’t in office.

President allows the running of guns to Mexican drug cartels to undermine the 2nd Amendment. Hundreds of Mexicans are killed as well as at least two American border patrol officers. So lets kick him out of office. Ooops, we can’t. We’ve let the democrats control the narrative.

Let’s go back to supporting the attacks on Sarah Palin.

ANYTHING that Palin does will get the attention of the libs who are waiting in the weeds to find something to crow about. She could be delivering a special birthday cake to some shut-ins and the bastard libs would make a big deal out of it. Get over it people, get a life.

How many people have pictures of their toddlers sitting on the back of a fairly large dog trying to ride it like a horse?
What’s the difference? Either way the dog is bearing the full weight of the child.

Be careful, if you don’t particulary like those photos you will be branded a liberal LOL

By the way, I agree with you. What if he went into someone elses home and stepped on their dog? Some things you just have to say no to.

This thread is a microcosm as to whats wrong with conservatism. It really is. How much feel good liberal indoctrination can people spot? Because there’s a ton of it to be found.

Amen to that brother. What an embarrassment to read.

Most animals know when a child isn’t normal. I’ve seen the worst acting animals become tame when a special needs child entered the room. Not all mind you, but most. The animals sense that the child isn’t all there and allow much more manhandling than they would with a normal child.

JMHO.

As someone who lived with dogs this size till I was 25, I can say the dog is very happy to be where it is.
For some reason, dogs know that children are vulnerable and they cut them slack when doing something bad.

Only someone out to attack the Palin family (again) would pay any attention to it.

Well, I grew up with jumbo breeds only and the dog in this picture probably weighs a lot more than the kid. The dog wasn’t in pain at all, which is a good thing since a dog of this size could bite Junior in half. It’s supposed to be the contrast - big dog v. little kid thereby “cute”. Animal abuse it ain’t.

Hasn’t anybody here ever owned a black lab? I could stand on the back of my late great puppy and he would have ignored it. Those dogs are made of steel. Nothing to see here.

That dog looks stressed to you?

Besides, how do you know that this isn't a cultural norm among Native Americans?

Trig and his father, and his brother and sisters are all registered tribal members, except for Sarah.

I have one. She’s only about 55 pounds and 11 months old. She is strong, strong, strong. Hard headed as well, but that’s another issue.

Thank you,some people think they are experts at everything,and in reality need to get over themselves, and stop sounding like liberal busybodies. It is only January 2,what in hell are you going to harp on for the rest of the year?

You have to be dumber than dirt to put out such a picture and think it won’t get a negative reaction. Not an an animal love and I would not permit that.

I knew it and I bet Sarah knew it too. Nothing more fun than throwing some bait out there and then waiting for the media to take it. The dog would have moved had he been in any distress at all.

If the dog was in pain, he would move.

Why would you wait for the dog to be in pain? Good parenting would have him disciplined for stepping on the dog in the first place.
