Kim Kardashian Addresses the Puppy Controversy

Kim Kardashian is finally clapping back at the critics who have been barking up the wrong tree about her decision to gift puppies to her kids for Christmas. During a candid chat on her sister Khloé’s podcast, Khloé in Wonder Land, the 45-year-old reality TV icon shared her thoughts on the uproar nearly a month after the holiday season.

"These Pomeranians are so tiny. It’s a handful, but it’s taught my kids in the last few weeks so much responsibility," Kim dished out, emphasizing the lesson in responsibility that the furry additions have brought to their household.

A Lesson in Responsibility

Kim, who shares four children with her ex, Kanye West, spilled the tea on how each of her kids is adjusting to the canine company. Her eldest, North, 12, has grown quite attached to her pup, Uzi, often taking him along on her travels and making sure he stays cozy in her room.

As for Chicago, Kim spilled, "I do love that Chi cleans up after her dog. She’s not great at it, but she does it." Clearly, the experience is more than just fun and games – it's a crash course in responsibility.

PETA’s Criticism and Kim’s Calm

The Christmas surprise, however, wasn’t without its drama. PETA, the world's biggest animal rights group, wasn't too thrilled about Kim’s festive choices. "Puppies are not plushies, and it’s a damn shame that Kim missed the chance to be a spokesperson for shelter pups," PETA founder Ingrid Newkirk stated, calling out the star's decision loudly across social media.

Despite the uproar, Kim has stayed serenely above the fray, continuing to share adorable snippets of her children bonding with their pint-sized Pomeranians. Looks like Kim's not letting the critics rain on her fluffy parade.
