Oh, my yes, stubborn as hell.

If you go to the Daily Mail page, you’ll see that many who are commenting are from the UK - it’s usually Americans who comment. The Brits are absolutely crazed on the subject of animal abuse. Child abuse, not so much. They see animal abuse in almost any photo. I have so many British friends on FB and they are constantly posting photos of animal abuse stories. I just skip over them.

Well, the same might be said of some on here.... Trig is a special kid, the dog goes where ever he goes. It's trained to be attentive to Trig.

I have faith in Sarah and Todd as parents they have already raised 4 other children who appear to be in tact.

Of course you don't let little kids touch/poke, stand on, pull the ears or tails of just any dog. But this is Trig’s dog and if the dog did not like what Trig was doing, he would be on the floor.

It has always bothered me how conservatives are so quick to talk about disciplining kids, it's disturbing.
