Sister Wives star Robyn Brown finds herself at the center of controversy once again, with a resurfaced clip from season 2 sparking accusations of animal abuse.
The clip, allegedly from episode 9, shows Robyn seemingly kicking out with her leg in the direction of Meri Brown’s elderly dog, Drake. The impact sends Drake flying, leaving viewers questioning Robyn’s intentions.
Sister Wives: Robyn Brown Accused of Animal Abuse As Clip Kicking Meri’s Dog Resurfaces; “Indefensible Behavior”
Interpretations of the clip differ. Some fans, like Gwendlyn Brown (Christine Brown’s daughter), believe Robyn deliberately kicked the dog. Gwen commented on social media, highlighting the distinction between “putting your leg up” and “kicking a dog, especially when it’s old and especially on camera.”
Others defend Robyn, suggesting she might have been startled by the dog’s approach and used her leg to create space, unintentionally making contact.
A Look Back at the Brown Family and Pets
The Browns’ relationship with pets has been a point of discussion throughout the series. While Kody initially expressed fondness for dogs, even calling them “part of the family,” his stance appears to have shifted.
Meri’s dog, Drake, was euthanized due to kidney disease in season 5, with Kody acknowledging their bond. However, in recent seasons, Kody has denied requests from Robyn’s daughters for a puppy and clashed with Janelle over her dog sleeping on the bed.
