| My Brother told me to spank my Baby :( I am so upset... All day long by the conversation My brother and I had over the phone. He is talking to me and my Suzi scratches me a little, I say owwww. He then proceedes to inform that I need to spank my puppy, to get her to behave... And I tell him it was not a big deal, he says it doesn't matter. I tell that it is wrong to hit animals, and I'd never hurt my baby... He does not say a thing and the conversation goes nowhere. He has been around My puppy and has never hurt her. Now I am terrified that he would in a heartbeat, if I was not there. Iam so disgusted and absolutely mordified that my own brother would hit animals. My teenaged son told me he hits his animals at his own home. He has 6 dogs, and a few cats . This is cruel, to hurt a defeseless animal. why do people believe it is ok to hit their dogs? Gosh, I am shaking just writing this. Suzi is my baby, i am scared to death that someone I know would hurt her. Needless to say, he has blown my trust out the window.

| That's sad. My family is the same way, it's like they think their brains work the same way ours do, not that it's a good way to get a positive reaction from a human either.. All I have to do is tell Duke no with a stern voice, he can tell when I am upset and he knows if he does something wrong, he puts his little head down and walks away.

| I can't let this go.... To me, he is a monster. Deep down inside of himself he has to know it is wrong to hit a dog, a puppy, my puppy I am so pissed right now at him, I do not want to see him ever again. Suzi is my puppy, and keeps me going emotionally .The thought of someone abusing her makes me sick. My brother know that I love my puppy very much, and he still says this to me? How can a person love a animal and then hit it? That is cruel, and I just do not understand people like that .

Donating YT 7000 Club Member | I think you need to have a good long heart-to-heart talk with your brother. He probably doesn't realize how much this hurt you. If he's anything like my brother (who is older than me), he says stupid things that hurt me, and doesn't get what the big deal is until I explain it to him. Cause that's how guys are! LOL. I'm sorry you are so upset over this. Honestly though he probably just doesnt understand. He probably thinks he's helping you. But it doesn't make it right. I'm sending you BIG hugs!

| Please do not let the ignorance of other have such an affect over you well being. As long as you do not plan to leave you puppy with your brother no harm can come to her. Although you do not agree with his "discipline" of his animals, you cannot change him unless you yourself see cruelty being inflicted upon his pets. Dogs give unconditional love which is so sad when you come upon someone like this.

| I'm sorry. I wouldn't know how to react either. I won't try to tell you what to do, because this is a personal situation. Just know that I hope you feel better... |

| i think people who hit dogs and children are a different breed of people altogether, possibly lacking the essential qualities of empathy and common sense. hitting another being does nothing but place fear and anger in them, and will ultimately end up working against you. |
