Watch Amy Schumer poke fun at overbearing dog owners, anti-vaccinators

Step into any doggy day care, and you might meet the type of person Amy Schumer skewers in this Inside Amy Schumer bit: An indulgent owner who treats her pet like a person and raves about the over-the-top way the pup was rescued. Schumer and a few other dog moms one-up each other by sharing their pet's tales of woe — one lost his leg when a cop shot him in St. Louis, while another was a purebred child dog soldier rescued from the Darfur Galleria — but the highlight is finding out why one woman refused to let her dog get his shots.
