Definitely. There is some kind of family history that lead to the mistrust on Kim's part, the tension between the mom and her daughter, and the dynamic between the dad and the dogs. Even the relationship between the daughter and the dogs hints to a lot more going on beneath the surface, and it makes the advice seem very shallow, because the root issues were not addressed.

[@calamitynatalie8590]

Kim wants to take over the mother role. She has issues with her father and step mother. She doesn’t trust her dad for other reasons that have nothing to do with the dogs and I would hazard to guess they have more to do with her dad marrying a young, pretty, slim, blonde woman. The father has his own issues absolutely but with the level of control Kim wants over every aspect of the smaller dependants of the household...it’s pretty obvious she is trying to be the “responsible adult”

[@lizbaraj]

Calamity Natalie to me, she is behaving like a 7-year-old who now has to share her daddy. Dad is caving in because he wants his little girl to accept his wife. Kim is now counting minutes just to keep the blame-game but does it really make a difference for a dog to be fed at 7:30 than say, at 7:45? Dad needs to grow a pair and understand he needs to set his foot down because little Kim is testing him to see if she can still trust him.

Sounds like Kim has some real anxiety issues. I think she'd really benefit from counselling/therapy to help figure out where her desperate need for control comes from. I know it's America, but her family looks like they could afford it. Then again, this was also a decade or so ago, so who knows what they're all up to now. You know... I'd *love* a Where Are They Now segment on some of the more unique families. Obviously a lot of the pups won't be with us anymore, that's sad but inevitable, but some of the families were really genuinely interesting and/or likeable people, and I'd love to know how they're doing. Think Vic would ever go for that?

I started taking care of a labsky pup about 5 months ago and was following the feeding guidelines on the back of the bag (6 cups a day for a puppy). He wouldn't finish his food most days, I looked up the recommended serving size for labs and husky and it was only 2-3 cups a day for an adult!!! Dog food companys want us to use as much food as possible so we have to buy more food sooner. Yall be careful when following the directions on the bag, do your research!

[@kiwigirlNZ]

“Labsky” 😂

[@bluebunnie98]

Definitely research! Puppies generally need more food then grown dogs but that is totally dependent on the brand/kind of food. Research the brand and kind of food you are feeding and adjust! Especially when dealing with mixed mutts I’m glad you looked into it!

[@charlleedodson]

Also, each dog is unique. If your dog is more active then they will absolutely need more food. I don’t follow the recommended feeding on the bag, I look at my dog. I like being able to see a nice tuck under the rib cage as well as easily feel ribs, although not see the ribs. My vet told me that’s a pretty good way to get a good sense of health and improve longevity, if that makes sense.

[@lidiyaheyheyhey3387]

It really depends on the brand of dog food the type of dog you have and what you are using them for. A dog who jogs 5 miles a day will need more than a dog that lives on the sofa.

[@aussiecountry9320]

In general the recommended serviving sizes are kind of more of a guidline. Every dog has different metabolisms and exercise amounts, so the amount of food they need may be less, the same or in some cases more then the recomended. They actually have a formula to give you a general idea of how many callories your dog needs a day.

[@LL-hh8xq]

For some reason I kind of really feel bad for Kim. The parents put on a polite face but something about them makes me feel like they’re terrible to be around in private.

The way her father tells his ADULT daughter "you don't tell me to do anything" is not disturbing at all. The way she averts her eyes tells how completely she is and want's to be in charge of everything. The fact that the problem with the dogs was overfeeding proves this is not about feeling lost or afraid that someone might not get the needed care from her father, but about revenge.

[@cosmicrenegade8216]

I have three dogs, two cats and also do a lot of petsitting. It is SO much less stressful to feed everybody at the same times. If they don't finish within a reasonable amount of time, the bowl goes up until the next mealtime. This way you can know exactly how much each dog/cat is eating (or not if they're ill). And it doesn't take them long at all to pick up on the routine if you're consistent. I feel like free feeding definitely just opens up the door to aggression between other pets in the home. And you'll have no clue what to tell your vet the next time they ask you, "How much is your pet eating?" That food will also go stale sitting out like that. If you need an appropriate pet measuring cup, ask your vet. They'll give you one. I don't understand why people make it difficult on themselves.

My vet says she's the perfect weight, so I'm happy. An obese dog is a dog that will have health issues. I also get a bit of a chuckle when Victoria says, leave the food down for 20 minutes and if they haven't finished it take it up, because I have never had a dog who didn't scarf their food as soon as it went down, probably due to the measuring so they are hungry when I feed them.

Omg. These owners, i can't. 😤

[@loisjohn8259]

Kim ,if she is so confident she should be out from her father's house 😡😡😡

[@lorrieruff4402]

When it comes to individuals like the daughter, where they feel if they are not in control, they are out of control attitude. Well they are disruptive to a house hold. they love the girl, but they have to be strong. She looks old enough be on her own. But there is not enough back ground story here. Sometime the best relationship you can have with a grown family member is distance. Where short visits are better for a relationship, than long or living with them. May be that is what is meant by" absence makes the heart grow fonder".

[@bbblue_gachacookie8310]

Wow its a food problem its really easy when you work for it

[@luxsilvestra]

I understand it can be difficult to figure out how much to feed your dog, and not to mention that some dogs easily gain seemingly just from breathing! But omg if you SEE your dog is getting overweight then you're obviously overfeeding. Overweight dogs are really not cute. It's ruining their joints and shortening their lives. I can't understand people who claim to love their dog, but then proceed to overfeed it like ???? i dont get it

[@karimchaffai5922]

It's not even that hard, if it's gaining weight, lower the food you give it, if his loosing weight, give a little more. I swear these people that let their dog become overweight always say, but they want to eat more because their stressed and it help them.

[@rosebeanvalentine7725]

It’s really simple to find out how much to feed a dog. The information is on the bag of dog food.

[@luxsilvestra]

@@rosebeanvalentine7725 i strongly advise against it. If i fed my dog the recommended amount, she'd turn into a cow. Many don't fit it either. Goes from dog to dog.

[@luxsilvestra]

@@karimchaffai5922 i mean, honestly, dogs regardless of stress or whatever, will eat until they explode. The term "bottomless pit" is often used for cats, but dogs are right there next to them lmao Envious of everyone who has a dog who doesn't overeat.

[@rosebeanvalentine7725]

@@luxsilvestra You’re right. I was meaning Kim should have looked on the bag so she would know that she was over feeding the dogs. My dog got overweight on 1/2 cup a day per the bags instructions so I fed her 1/4 a cup and she got to a healthy weight.

[@theoverunderthinker]

sometimes you have to take more into account than just what the bag tells you. I have a treeing walker hound that had heartworms and parasites when I got him. so when I got him from the shelter, I saw his feed sheet which had 1.5 cups twice a day and I gave him that and he was a good size. then I got him treated for parasites and working on the heartworm. they said he was to avoid exercise so he was in a kennel a lot. so I started to see him start to get chunky as his treatment for parasites went on and his stool hardened. without the parasites he was getting more of his own nutrition. same after his first heartworm shot. I reduced his food until she started to slim up again. it's not just body weight, you have to take into account activity level and also look at the dog's belly to see if they are working on a gut or not. the bag says for his weight 3.5 cups a day. he gets slightly less than 2. usually once a week he complains and I give him a touch more in the evenings, but if I gave what I said I would have a beach ball and not a hound! when he is done and can run around, his feed will go back up since he will be burning more. regardless, if your dog starts to look like he has a pot belly, maybe cut back on the the chow!

[@Hello-fj2tz]

My dog is 88 pounds and is on a diet and is trying to lose 3 pounds and she gets fed that much and she’s feeding her dachshund that much! Wow

[@nicoledessaint4321]

Would love to see the full episode of this one.

[@AlC355]

Isn’t there a ratio weight/cup on the bag?

[@murfandmur9532]

I LOVE THESE SHOWS SHE IS SO TALENTED VICTORTIA STILLWELL!💖

[@JC-gk1yr]

This is allll about her resentment of stepmom. Thankless job. I can tell she’s a good kid, but real issue is with Dad. Dad sits back with arms crossed thinking he’s “in the middle” but not at all.

[@aquleix]

They should only feed their dogs the right food, not more than actual. It can be very painful for a dog with overweight. They do need food, yes. The problem is many owners overweight their dog's without knowing that. Dog's don't only can eat dry food. They need to eat other food's too. I hope for every dog owner that they care about their dog's weight and what food they need. I hope people are going to look about the dog breed that they want to own. I do have a doberman and she is the sweetest. I live in germany but I do love your videos. I just hope I have maybe some advices..? Have a good day/night dog team :)

[@sharonpiecharka1339]

No comment to the family except say to them, to the dogs, Victoria and everyone else, take care, Stay Healthy, Stay safe.

This series is Interesting especially when you have a Siberian Husky

[@jblps]

@Nogs Galogs I think they just wanted us to know what type of doggo they have 😆🤷‍♂️

[@warstaa]

It gives us a hint of what helps their behavior and mood

[@warstaa]

@Nogs Galogs Thanks m8

[@ColonelInferno]

Did she forget that the Internet exists where she could’ve looked up exactly how much food a certain breed/age of dog should be eating?

[@georgiadreamingbb1245]

I think they need to share some of those puppy loves haha how adorable are those lovely fur babies!!!! All of them so cute...

[@goodcookandherguineapigand5122]

How much food depends on what food you feed them . I am a dog trainer too.

[@jojoorsmth]

This is making me paranoid that I'm overfeeding my dog (I know I'm not). My 60 lb boxer gets 4 cups of dry food a day (2 in the morning, 2 at night) and he's a healthy weight and gets plenty of exercise but is that too much?!? I looked it up and it says that's what I should be feeding him but still.

[@ShastaMiriander]

Jojo's Universe every dog has a different metabolism. If you’re feeding and the adult dog is maintaining a healthy weight then you’re fine. I have a 60lb lab mix and a 90lb lab. They eat the same amount, 3 cups of food per day plus some treats/veggies. The smaller one has a much higher metabolism (she’s very energetic) and the bigger dog is a little older and more chill. The older dog used to eat 4 cups a day but when he got to be around 11yrs old I noticed he was sleeping a lot more and putting on a little extra weight so I reduced it.

[@Marika50]

You could ask the dogs vet to make sure.

[@gisellehernandez678]

Can't I just say how cute those puppies were 💖

[@zedex9318]

No u can’t

Funny, there's a family just as dysfunctional as mine out there

[@kristinrutherford8779]

first time I've seen a family on this program that's actually sophisticated

[@alicenowhere4503]

She just needed to do research before taking them under her wing

[@kittenmimi5326]

Probably no need to do so either

[@vdsenpai7321]

I jus think it’s because she feels like she wants to b needed by someone .

[@cloudypopcorn8820]

I have 3 dogs and, we used to overfeed the big one. But we stoped 7. years ago because he is 8 so we overfed him for a whole year. But now we got two new puppies and are correctly feeding them. (German Spitz, Dachshound, Griffon)

[@TYFYS-71]

I have a dachshund from day 1 he’s been free fed. I’ve grown up with free fed dogs. By him being free fed he knows the bowl is always full so he eats when he is hungry.

[@jordanbriggs6886]

I'm so glad my pitty only eats when he's hungry and not to just eat it

[@onceinabluemoon3264]

Yayyy new video🔥👍🏻❤️

[@aargiii5288]

Well that end was quick

[@unluckellie]

"I'm excited for Victoria's here so she can tell Rosie she's wrong and I'm right" It's so obvious who's wrong..😑

[@wickedwitchoftheeast88]

Exactly! Kim is so interfering and controlling she didn't want the dogs trained she wanted Victoria to agree with her so she can gain more control "Victoria thinks I'm right" translates as "see I'm right so what I say goes"
