Louise Thompson mum-shamed over ‘dangerous’ video of dog with her 18 month old baby
LOUIS Thompson has been mum-shamed after posting a “dangerous” clip of her 18-month-old baby and her dog.
The former Made in Chelsea star took to Instagram where she shared a video of her adorable son, Leo playing in the kitchen with their pooch, Toto.
However, Louise was instantly bombarded with comments alleging that she is endangering her son, and many of her fans labelled it “dangerous”.
The video showed the 33-year-old former reality TV star‘s 18-month old baby giving the dog a kiss and bending down to kiss his ears.
She captioned the post saying: “Leo loves his honorary brothers (aka the fur babies) and it makes my heart sing. The way he goes back in for a second kiss is capable of sending me over the edge. Granted it doesn’t take much.”
She continued: “PS. Don’t be fooled this level of friendship has taken a fair amount of work and a great deal of patience. Any tips for babies and pets pop below. Currently trying to prevent Leo from over feeding them.”
But some of her 1.4M followers were concerned and rushed to the comments section to advise Louise.
One wrote: “Leo is very sweet but the dog is showing quite a lot of stress signs like lip licking, wide eyes, tense face, shake off. It would be better to encourage Leo to give space and allow the dog the choice to move in to his space if they want to.”
Another added: “I would never let my godson put his face to my dog! I held my breath watching this.”
A third commented: “Toto is showing lots of stress signals which if not understood could lead to what people say is ‘a bite out of nowhere’.”
A fourth penned: “Didn’t the dog just lick his lips twice, you do know they lick their own bits.”
A fifth added: “That can be dangerous, the dog is showing a lot of stress signs there, beware.”
This isn’t the first time Louise has been cruelly subjected to harsh comments by her followers on social media.
In June she was mum-shamed for swimming with her son, Leo.
The video showed the 33-year-old former reality TV star swimming in a pool with her son perched on her back.
She captioned the post saying: “Leo and I tapping into our Tsaheylu – the psychic avatar bond.”
She added: “This is Leo’s new favourite thing to do. He loves riding on my back holding onto my ponytail and I think it’s super cute, but let me tell you it’s deceptively hard.”
One wrote: “This is so dangerous without a float on him!! My friend’s baby drowned, pay attention.!!”
Another said: “I’m so sorry for your friend’s baby. My son is a lifeguard and also belongs and trains with a lifesaving club. I share your anxiety and emotional response to what you have seen.”
But Louise didn’t have to fire back as many of her followers fought her battle for her.
One wrote: “He’s on her back and it’s being filmed, probably by his dad. How much attention do you not think he’s getting.”
