On Defense
After the incident, David defended his actions. “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,” the star wrote on Instagram on May 1.

Judgment
“You can hate me all you want, but this isn’t the first time the dog bit Ensley aggressively,” the former reality TV star added. “The only person that can judge [whether] or not [an] animal is a danger to MY CHILD is ME.”

Done
In the wake of the incident, MTV decided to cut all ties with Jenelle. “MTV ended its relationship with David Eason over a year ago in February 2018 and has not filmed any new episodes of Teen Mom 2 with him since,” an MTV spokesperson told Us Weekly in May. “Additionally, we have stopped filming with Jenelle Eason as of April 6, 2019, and have no plans to cover her story in the upcoming season.”

“I don’t know if she was shot or killed or not,” the reality TV personality allegedly told police officers. Radar added that she claimed that she filed the animal cruelty report for publicity because she “did not know where her dog was.”

Upset
In early July, a fan asked Jenelle on her Instagram Story, “Was it a hard decision to stay with David after the dog incident?” She responded, “Honestly yes, we were on bad terms for almost a week. Didn’t talk much. He knows how upset it made me.”
