'It's No Good for You': Italian Grandma Scolds Biscuit-Loving Dog

A grandmother in Ryde, New South Wales, told off her granddaughter’s two-year-old dog after it kept nagging her for a biscuit.

TikTok user Stephanie Scalise captured video of her Italian grandmother, who has lived Australia for 45 years, warning Diesel the Doberman about the perils of eating too much.

In the video, Scalise’s grandmother chastises the dog and tells him that he could get diabetes. “It’s no good for you, sugar. You’ll get diabetes, like Nonna,” she said.
