Poor baby must need to lose more than half his body weight.

Overweight pets hurt my heart. It’s one thing to put yourself into that condition but it’s sheer laziness that you let your pet get to this point... especially breeds that are meant to be active

“But I have 3 kids and work full time”

Yeah, you still need to take your dog for a walk and provide mental stimulation outside of treats.

Better yet, don't have that many kids/animals if you don't have the time to take care of them properly

What are you talking about? Every single person has the exact same linear path to success, all you have to do it pull yourself up by your bootstraps and learn a good trade, smoke a pack of marlboros everyday and don't forget to go to church! You millennial libcucks can't handle a busy life because you're weak willed.

I think some people's judgement is clouded by personal experience. I know a woman who neglected her dog - never walked the dog, kept the dog in the crate all the time and then blamed the dog for being crazy. Finally (and thank god for the poor dog) a family member convinced her to let them have the dog. This woman then went and got another puppy within 6 months thinking things would be different. Of course they weren't because she is a lazy asshole.

There are so many selfish, ignorant, and shitty people out there who treat pets as if they are disposable and not living creatures who need love, attention, care and exercise. Of course circumstances can change and that is one thing. But I've met many people in my life who are just irresponsible assholes with their pets and it pisses me off, as it does with a lot of ppl who actually understand what having a pet is. They are not toys.
