Teen Mom Star 2 Jenelle Evans Defends Letting Her Dog Playing With A Live Firework

Jenelle Evans has defended a video she posted on Saturday, which saw her dog playing with a live firework during 4th of July festivities.

The Teen Mom 2 star came under fire after sharing the short clip, as her followers began to attack her for allowing the pit bull to play with something so dangerous.

It is thought you could even hear her telling Jax to fetch the firework, which is what most people weren't happy about. 

Taking to Twitter after the whole furore, Jenelle wrote:

Her excuse for posting the now deleted video in the first place is that she's seen similar clips on America's Funniest Home Videos, according to TMZ.

“I’m sorry if people are offended,” Evans told the site. “Anything I do is going to be such a big deal to everyone else because I’m on TV. People have been trying to attack me for years.”

She also insists that her dog Jax is fine, and she'd do the same thing next 4th of July.
