A Dog and His Tricks
Brutal Tales
Lyssa Chapman, Dog’s ninth child, wrote a book that turned out to be pretty popular called Walking on Eggshells. In the book, Lyssa states that she became a teen mom after an upbringing that was far from good. She claimed that her father was a crack addict and her mother was an alcoholic. She wrote that once she got out of the house, she never wanted to go back to her dad.
“I [falsely] accused my father of raping me when I was 11. I had been molested by a friend of his. It was a horrible life that I never wanted to go back to, living with him and Beth and the fighting and the drugs. When I got to my mother’s, although she drank, it was much more peaceful. I was in school, I had friends, I was willing to do anything to not go back,” she wrote.
Family Problems
If you’ve ever watched the show, it’s pretty obvious that the family has their issues. There are some pretty dramatic episodes of the show, but none more dramatic than the one where Dog’s sons got incredibly angry with Dog and Beth.
They both ended up quitting the show after saying they wanted to be fired. It’s not clear how everything ended up, but it is clear that the two aren’t on the show anymore. Dog and Beth always try to put a positive spin on negative things, but there was no hiding this.
Beth Getting Worse?
Beth Smith has gone through quite a few changes in her appearance over the years. Ever since she started showing up in front of cameras it seems like she’d look like a different person every week. There was definitely a point where things seemed to even out for her, but it has come and gone quickly. There are tons of rumors that she’s gone through countless surgeries, and it would explain a lot if it were true.
