Even though Pete Davidson explained his reasoning for not adopting, PETA thinks the comedian could have done better research. The nonprofit organization told TMZ, “If Pete had done his research, he would know that there’s no such thing as a hypoallergenic dog, that at least a quarter of dogs in shelters are purebreds, and that Petfinder has listings for homeless dogs of every breed under the sun, including the one he purchased.” According to the outlet, PETA and Davidson spoke about adopting a hypoallergenic dog, but the former SNL star claims he was unaware this was a possibility.
During the phone call, Davidson didn’t back down from the explicit voicemail he left Daphna Nachminovitch. In early May 2023, Davidson shared an Instagram post revealing that his family’s dog, Henry, passed away. The comedian shared, “My mom, sister and I are broken and will miss him forever. We love you Henry.”
The loss of his dog was part of the reason he went to go get a pup in the first place. He shared with TMZ, “I haven’t seen my mom and sister cry like that in over 20 years. I was trying to cheer up my family … Then this organization (PETA) made a public example of us, making our grieving situation worse. I am upset. It was a poor choice of words. I shouldn’t have said what I said, but I am not sorry for standing up for myself and my family.”
