shocked

Just heard that my daughters friend has a staffy....

anyway she was round at her friends house playing in the garden when her friend started running round like a maniac playing, the staffy umped up - accidently nipped her skin thru her trousers... the upshot of it all is

the girls mum preceded to bite the staffy on the ear as punishment.... my daughter said the staffy yelped..

im just like wtf ?

do ppl really do this ?

what do they think they will acheive by treating a dog this way ? and where the feck was the mother in the first place ?!?!

Ive since told my daughter not to go in their garden unsupervised again.

Yes, because biting a dogs ear is really going to help, what was she thinking??!

Some people shouldn`t have ANY animals. Stupid bloody woman.

Hm, that doesn't sound normal at all ... It sounds like she is tapped in the head !

She's lucky the dog didn't panic & bite her!

My god, that is SO old fashioned! I don't think I'd allow my daughter round there again, either.

And if he did, he would get the blame no doubt. Grrrrr !

the dog probably doesnt know what it was bitten on the ar for. the daughter should ahve been taught from the start not o run round and get the dog too giddy from the start. stupid woman

All some people need to do is be educated. There's a lot of wrong and outdated training techniques, this sounds like one of them. Poor dog.

Glad i didnt have a mother like that ,sounds really barmy!

Not sure I'd like to bite Dempsey's ear - I don't know where it's been!

jesus how dangerous could that be amagen the daughter doing that after seeing her mother doing it

Dont think it is a good idea at all. But to be fair, even though the method is highly suspect, at least she made an effort to let the dog know its behaviour was unacceptable. Mind you she might have had a word with her kid about running around the dog and getting it excited in the first place.
