and be treated like puppies he says that
since he's not hurting anybody he
doesn't understand why there are people
who get so upset about the way he
chooses to live his life he also made it
a point to mention that living as a
puppy is not a sexual thing he says that
it is both a lifestyle and a way to
escape reality he says that being a
puppy allows him to get away from money
problems and the hectic lifestyle that
he lives and sometimes hates spot did
say that dressing as a puppy can be a
catalyst and there are times that it
leads to other things when he's in

lot more than a documentary or a spot on
a morning television show for people to
understand his way of life he
understands that he won't be able to get
everyone to agree with his lifestyle and
he's fine with that he says if he can
just get a few people to change their
perception about his
style and those like him well it'll all
be worth it the hosts of the show asked
spot a question about his lifestyle and

to what society expects and stop living
the lifestyle of a puppy spot told them
that he could never go back to being
just Tom because deep down inside he
truly is spot he says the only time that
he is happy is when he is dressed like a
puppy and acting like one his
relationship with Rachel ended because

would take a really special and
understanding person to agree to share
their life with somebody who chooses to
live their life as a dog tom slash spots

strange lifestyle like this
