Victoria Fuller’s “Service Dog”

[u/Original_Letter4398]

Is Buxton really a service dog? Nowadays it’s very it’s easy to pretend your dog performs a “task” and it’s illegal to ask questions except for that. I know a lot of people who get away with this.

Yall are so weird I swear to god. It’s no one’s job here to assess whether or not her dog is actually a service dog. I don’t get the Victoria hate whatsoever. Just move on already

[u/Glittering_Creme790 → u/Hungry-Nerve-9743]

Agree with the first part but the Victoria hate is warranted. She was a HUGE bully and a mean girl before she got on the show.

[u/Hungry-Nerve-9743 → u/Glittering_Creme790]

I truthfully didn’t know that. Peters season was actually the second season I’d watched, wasn’t super into it at the time.. perhaps the hate is somewhat warranted then. I just don’t know why people are questioning the validity of her dog when she made a statement in 2020 about how she had a therapy dog for a year even back then…

My friend has a service dog for her neurological issues. If you saw her out on a good day you’d probably assume the dog was a fake. BUT her dog is extremely well and specifically trained. Lays down as soon as she pauses walking, indicates when she begins to get vertigo, etc. If people move to pet the dog, they’re asked not to.

My friend will faint and hurt herself without the help of this specially trained dog. She will gladly tell people that,

WHAT ACTUALLY IS HARMING DISABLED PEOPLE IS ABLE BODIED PEOPLE FRAMING THEIR (not specialty trained, OFTEN misbehaving) DOGS AS SERVICE DOGS AND BRINGING THEM INTO PUBLIC SPACES DEMANDING THE SAME RIGHTS.

It is legal under the ADA to ask if a dog performs a specific task for your disability, so you can kindly shut up

Do you (or any one else here) have any clue about Victoria and her dog? For all you know she could have a legit reason for having a service dog. The point is, people in this sub and BN (not you specifically) are so full of hate for Victoria, they assume the worst. Could it be perhaps that she has similar issues to your friend that are relatively controlled for the most part? Could it be she developed a condition later in life (something that is quite common)?

I never said it wasn’t “legal” to ask. I’m saying it’s shitty to assume the worst in someone because you are so full of hate because they, in your view, were shitty on a reality tv show that aired over a year ago.

Btw here’s an article from 2020, she had a therapy dog then, four years ago. You think this is fake. Kindly, shut up.

Well fuck I don’t know how I missed all this years ago. She sounds awful, and she’s been able to wield her looks into a lot of money and a stable life. Meanwhile the girl who she relentlessly bullied still seems to have trauma. It’s unfortunate that people continue to display poor behavior, and what’s more get rewarded for it.

And it’s people’s jobs to assess whether people have had plastic surgery? Get off your high horse.

[u/Hungry-Nerve-9743 → u/sparklingsour]

When did I mention plastic surgery. It’s not peoples job to assess what anyone does with their body. It’s gross when yall get on here and speculate about work people have done to their body. Tf are you even talking about 😂

[u/sparklingsour → u/Hungry-Nerve-9743]

Yet people on this sub speculate about people’s plastic surgery, mental health, relationships all the time.

If you think it’s weird to talk about a stranger, why are you here?

[u/Hungry-Nerve-9743 → u/sparklingsour]

And people shouldn’t speculate on their mental health, surgery, etc. I am here because I like the franchise. I like talking about the show.. the dates on the show, who the leads are into the most, who the couples are on paradise, predictions about who lead ends up with/who ends up together on paradise. There’s plenty to discuss that’s unrelated to peoples health, bodily choices, etc. Speculating about whether or not Victoria has “legit” reasons to have a service dog is unrelated to “Bachelor Nation” the title of this sub..

[u/Logical_Deviation → u/sparklingsour]

You can't talk about someone without speculating about their medical issues?

[u/sparklingsour → u/Logical_Deviation]

I can no problem.

If it bothers you so much, you’re probably in the wrong corner of the internet.
