She’s weighing in on the situation. Teen Mom 2 alum Taylor Leonard (née Halbur) — who previously dated and has a child with Chelsea Houska’s ex Adam Lind — wanted to make it clear that she did not agree with David Eason’s decision to killJenelle Evans’ pup Nugget. The former reality star called him “sociopathic” and “narcissistic” on Twitter. Scroll through the gallery below to see what else she said.
Taylor, 29, recently got married in August 2018. Before that, the former MTV star was dumped by Adam after she found out he had cheated on her with several other women in May 2014. The hot mama appeared on several episodes with Jenelle, so she clearly has an opinion about the incident.

RIP Nugget
The North Carolina native confirmed the sad news in an Instagram update on Wednesday, May 1. “Nugget … I’m crying every day. I love you so much, and I’m so sorry,” she wrote. “I’m speechless.

So Sad

Why Did He Do It?

His Side of the Story
“I don’t give a damn what animal bites my baby on the face … whether it be your dog or mine, a dog is a dog, and I don’t put up with that s–t at all,” he said on May 1. “I’m all about protecting my family, it is my life’s mission. Some people are worth killing or dying for, and my family means that much to me.”

Protecting His Fam
He added, “You can hate me all you want, but this isn’t the first time the dog bit Ensley aggressively. The only person that can judge whether or not an animal is a danger to MY CHILD IS ME.”

A ‘Teen Mom’ Alum Weighs In
On May 1, Taylor took to Twitter to share her thoughts. “That dog is clearly showing signs of distress in this video,” she wrote. “This is why we teach our kids not to put their faces in the dog’s. It’s common f—king sense. You can see by the dog’s reaction that it does not care for her to be so damn close. READ THE SIGNS PEOPLE.”

Come On, David!
She continued, “Also, what happens when she sticks her face in a stranger’s dog’s face? It’s not about whose f–king house it is. It’s about respecting the animal and its space. Not to mention the safety of the child. Doesn’t matter if it’s a family pet or not. Animals have instincts and can turn on anyone at any time.”

Not a Fan
Lastly, Taylor wasn’t afraid to slam the father of one on social media. “Someone who preys on the innocent and vulnerable … kids … animals,” she said. “Sociopathic, narcissistic and on top of it violent? Ya. David … calling you out, dude. Enough is enough.”

See Ya!
She’s not the only one that feels that way, either! Fans are begging MTV to cut ties with Jenelle and David once and for all. One person fumed, “Enough is enough! #MTV needs to FIRE #JenelleEvans if no other reason than to no longer put money into place that houses her f—k-wit of a #husband David. A 911 call was made today claiming that David killed Jenelle’s dog! WTF??? Jenelle hasn’t posted about the incident, but her FB status says, ‘Feeling devastated!’ Bitch, that dog was devastated! I can’t stand these people! They are both total abominations! Those poor children! This man isn’t going to stop until someone ends up dead! #TeenMom #TheLibraLoungeWithKeisha #DavidEason.”
