He seems to have some thoughts on the situation. Javi Marroquin of Teen Mom 2 fame shared a video to his Instagram Story on May 1 that seemed a little shady towards fellow franchise dad David Eason. David recently confirmed that he killed his wife Jenelle Evans’ dog on April 30, and within days, Javi, 26, shared a video about how well his dogs are trained. Scroll through the gallery below to learn more and to see the clip!
Anyway, Javi seems to have some thoughts on the whole David situation that unfolded in late April and early May.

Heartbreaking
On April 30, reports indicated that the police had been called to Jenelle’s house to investigate after a “frantic” 911 call alleging that her husband had killed her dog. An unknown male caller made the accusation.

Relaying the News
“A call was made today, and it was relayed that the woman’s husband had killed her dog,” the Sheriff’s Department later told Radar Online. “The Sheriff is out there right now investigating and there will be an incident report filed later.”

“So Sorry”
She later confirmed the sad news in an Instagram update. “Nugget … I’m crying every day. I love you so much and I’m so sorry. I’m speechless,” she wrote. “You were my sidekick and knew the moment I felt bad and would cuddle with me. You still had a lot to learn and a lot to grow from your lessons.”

Gone
She added, “Every day I wake up you’re not here, when I come home you’re not here, when I go to bed … you’re not here. You’re gone forever and there’s no coming back. #Heartbroken #Distraught.”

His Defense
David also defended his decision to shoot Nugget on his own Instagram account. “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 in a now-deleted post on May 1.

Justifying
He continued, “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.”

Hate Him
“You can hate me all you want,” he added. “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.”

Stop
He shared a clip as well that featured his daughter on the couch with Nugget. In it, Ensley is cuddling with the dog on the couch as she continues to lean closer and the dog leans away, in a clear sign that it’s distressed and wants her to back off. Eventually, the dog nips at her cheek to get the girl to stop.

Boundaries
A lot of fans faulted David for what happened and were extremely angry that he killed the dog over the incident. “So I watched the video of the ‘nipping incident’ and you can clearly see this pup was uncomfortable,” one wrote. “A child should be taught boundaries with a dog. Period.”

Danger
Indeed, when it comes to kids and dogs, a little training and discipline can be the difference between a respectful bond and a potentially dangerous situation.

Agreed
Javi seems to agree. He posted a video of his dogs to his Instagram just days later, and noted that he had “trained them well.”

Well-Behaved
