JENELLE Evans’ husband David Eason is being slammed by fans for posting videos of their daughter Ensley, 3, being rough with their puppy.
The videos come nearly one year after , 31, admitted to shooting and killing the family’s dog Nugget for nipping at Ensley.
In the videos posted on the former dad’s Instagram page, Ensley had her hands around Junior’s head as she hugged the pooch.
In one clip, she pulled the dog's ear back, as the puppy appeared uncomfortable.
David captioned the videos: “Dogs are meant to be loved on, kissed in the face and tolerant of children's behavior. Junior is such a gentle, loving boy like all dogs should be!”
Followers slammed David for the videos and caption.
One user wrote on Reddit: “Dogs are animals. And they’re not capable of using words to say ‘I don’t like that, please stop.’ This dog is just the same as Nugget, except that so far Ensley hasn’t pushed it to the point of feeling like biting is its only option.”
A second wrote: “It's only a matter of time before Ensley goes too far and will be nipped or bitten. They've had this dog for two weeks or so? Nugget was tolerant too until pushed too far.
“You know they're not giving any guidance to Ensley whatsoever to train her how to handle a dog.”
A third said: “Not only are they putting this poor dog in an awful situation, they are teaching Ensley zero boundaries. You can’t teach a child that they can do whatever they want and a person or animal should just tolerate it.”
A fourth said: “It’s like he wants an excuse to justify killing this dog.”
And a fifth wrote: “Does anyone else see stress in that poor dog's face? If I were in person watching that, I would gently remove the child from that situation and let the dog have its space.”
Jenelle, 28, was fired from Teen Mom 2 after David shot and killed the dog.
