The nice lady at Chinese restaurant fat shamed boog the chocolate lab

My wife wanted Lo mein and General tso’s. So I called in our order and when we arrived the nice Asian lady she brought our order out. And knucklehead was hanging out the window on my lap driver’s side. The nice lady commented on his girth in Asian English accent.

Nice lady - wow you dog fat

Man - you should have saw him 2 years ago he was 105 now he is 84 pounds. Don’t mention it he has complex his dream is to be huge a chocolate sausage.

Boog - yea nice lady they have me on a diet and exercise call PETA. Now handover the Chinese boog dogs love Chinese food.

Reason man bid off Union linehaul and went yard jockey. And boog started walking regularly.

Nice lady - no he is big dog

Man - The vet says he’s a lab on stilts he’s big dog. And not fat just big boned.

He was a big guy with a huge appetite, got up to 125 lbs. - too fat, messed with his back & caused mobility issues. We quit feeding him table scraps, started walking him every day and he got down to 99 lbs. He still kept begging right up until he was in too much pain & the end was in sight.

We use to get fat-shamed when taking our cat to the Vets. When he lost a bunch of weight from chronic vomiting, the Vet stopped fat-shaming us.
