Today ended up being a very rough day. We went to my grandma's for Mother's Day as usual. And since my grandma loves Bailey and Bailey loves going places we took her along like we always do. My uncle, whom I despise for many reasons ended up being there.
Honestly, my uncle is not a good person, racist, mean to women, disrespectful, beats his dogs into submission... On many occasions he has given his dog ham fat, chocolate, grapes, and cooked bones. My mother and I always tell him it's unhealthy and he laughs at us and does it anyway. He thinks he's an expert on dogs and does it to show us we're wrong.
Well, today he crossed the line. He gave my Bailey a cooked rib bone
and before we realized what he had done and were able to get it from her she had eaten the end of it. I took the bones from all the dogs he had given them too, and took the trash outside because his Weimeraner kept trying to get the bones out of it. He then gives his dog another bone and laughs when Bailey tries to get the broken pieces his dog left behind.
It was so difficult to act rationally in this situation and I knew I needed to get Bailey out of there asap. Fighting back tears(I cry when I'm angry) I grabbed my dog, told my mom to call me when they were ready for me to pick them up and left. It was so hard to keep myself from letting my uncle have it, but I knew I needed to focus on Bailey. When I got home I called up the emergency clinic to ask them what to look for and see if they thought I should bring her in. I have been watching her all night and she is eating and pooping and acting fine.
Needless to say Bailey will not be going up there anymore and I plan to talk to my uncle once more,to give him a lecture. I am just so upset about everything.
