        So obviously that means he couldn’t possibly ever exercise, because people who lose weight just wake up suddenly skinny and are never still fat at any of the in-between points during which they still get constantly shit on for existing in a shape society disapproves of.

        Acknowledging that they are obese is stating a fact. Claiming that they wouldn’t or couldn’t take good care of their dog because of their obesity is fat shaming. They’re not 600+lbs-can’t-leave-the-bed obese.

          Maybe it is literally the point of getting a dog and thus be forced to walk more, good for them, good for the dog

            Exactly. People who fat shame don’t actually want people to improve – they just want a target for their hate. I see no reason to disparage the people in the picture, nor to think they won’t properly care for their dog.

            I don’t think fat shaming should be allowed here.
