Kylie Jenner: Cleared in Animal Abuse Investigation

Earlier this week, Kylie Jenner posted a video of her dogs that had some of her fans barking mad.



The clip shows Kylie playing with her pets, one of whom – an Italian greyhound puppy named Bambi – appears to be unusually thin.


Despite a statement from the Italian Greyhound Club of America saying that Bambi appeared to be within the normal weight range for the breed, some of Kylie’s Instagram followers were outraged with what they believed to be evidence of neglect and mistreatment.


Some fans even went so far as to file formal complaints with the Los Angeles Department of Animal Care and Control, which led to Kylie being investigated for animal cruelty


When asked for comment, the agency would not reveal how many complaints it received, but did confirm that an investigation was underway.


Now following an interview with Kylie and a surprise visit to her home, officials have determined that her dogs are in good health and show no signs of mistreatment.


“We did an animal welfare check Monday and Miss Jenner was very cooperative,” said a spokesman for the agency.


“Her animals are actually under medical care, so there’s no neglect whatsoever. The breed of dog tend to be very lean anyway…this one checked out and worked out very well with a happy ending.”


It’s good to hear the pups are in good hands, but hopefully the officials has a word with Kylie about driving with her dogs in her lap.
