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. "I didn't get him vaccinated because Jenny McCarthy said it can cause pawtism," she reveals solemnly. Watch the clip below. —Catherine Garcia
