Shelter worker called 'fatphobic': refused 'morbidly obese' to adopt dog

The employee was worried that the dog would not be able to get the exercise he needed and is being labeled as “fatphobic” online, according to The Sun.

The worker noted in a long post — that has since been deleted from Reddit — that the dog, named Rocky, jumped and showered the woman with kisses at an adoption event several weeks prior.

“It was love at first sight. Only problem? She was morbidly obese and drenched in sweat when it wasn’t warm,” the post read.

“I know you can’t judge fitness by looks, but I’ve never met someone her size fit enough to run over two hours a day with a hyperactive dog or chase him when he jumps the fence,” the post continued.
