Bad joke or attempt to make ends meet month? A few days ago, Aaron Carter, brother of Backstreet Boy Nick Carter, has adopted a puppy in a kennel in Los Angeles. But shortly after, he posted a live video on Instagram doing a doubt of his real intentions: “Here’s my new friend. But if I can’t keep it, I will be required to separate them. It has been 10 months and I would give away for 3500 dollars (about 3125 euros, editor’s NOTE). So if someone is willing to adopt my british bulldog…”.

You find nothing wrong with that? He goes through dog, after dog, after dog. #Truth pic.twitter.com/dnq7piqiIu

“I’ve rescued so many dogs”
on Sunday, the singer of 31 years has responded on Twitter, citing a misunderstanding on the part of his followers: “I find it appalling having to justify myself. I have saved so many dogs already and have found a home. What I said in my video was a joke. But go ahead, find a dog that I rescued and then exchanged for cash. This never happened so good luck! I am a good person and I deserve to be respected.”
In another tweet, he stated that it did not need the money from the potential sale of dogs and be ready to defend themselves through legal channels if it were to be attacked again on this topic: “Sorry to invoke this, but I own my own home and earns $ 3 million per year, so I don’t sell dog. So follow me and don’t mess my name or I will complaint. Don’t look no and splash me peace.” Later still he added: “It is so easy to be misunderstood, no matter what you do.” Before thanking his fans for their support, their affection and understanding.
I think it’s apalling that I actually even have to explain myself I’ve rescued many dogs & found many dogs homes. what I said in my Instagram live video was a joke. Find one dog that I adopted and sold for money, be my guest. WONT HAPPEN. I’m a good person and i deserve respect.
