My mom was out in the backyard with my dog about 10minutes ago, I was watching them.. my mom thinks shes some kind of trainer or something and always thinks the dog will obey her every command.
I was watching her and the dog was just being the playful dog she always is, my mom was holding onto her leash. Obviousily the dog resisted abit considering somebody she hardley knows was keeping her from playing in the backyard where she needed to run around, etc. The dog kept resisting and my mom kept tugging on the leash to use her choke collar, and yelled at her to "Sit!", dog kept resisting and my mom raised her hand above her own head (not the dogs) and hit her very hard on the stomache.
I saw this with my own eyes and without thinking ran outside and yelled at my mother. "You don't ****ing hit her!" my mom tryed to claim the dog bit her on the arm except theres 2 reasons why that is a lie. My dog has never bit anybody in her life, we rescued her at 3 weeks old. The fact that I saw the entire thing and never saw the dog bite her on the arm is also reason enough.
I am very angry right now, and don't plan on leaving the dog alone with my mother ever again. I think i'm very lucky I found out she would hit an animal now - instead of in the future where something worse may happen. Am I overreacting? I don't think I am, but if you do.. tell me.
