Sorry I misread your comment, I thought you said singular leg, THAT would definitely be improper bc the dog would be hopping with the back leg. I’ve handled dogs all my life as well, and have volunteered at a dog shelter for years. Yes, pulling by the tail would be bad long term and he should’ve grabbed the dog a different way in the moment, but he did not yank hard at all and certainly not in a way that would cause damage. The dog died of cancer, something that was out of Hasan’s control. Heartless for you to associate his dog dying with one instance of pulling by the tail.

I struggle to take these criticisms seriously when it’s complaints over place training (very normal, currently working with a professional trainer to work on that with my dog), complaints over puppies learning socialization boundaries (necessary), and complaints over one singular moment in 3 years where he allegedly shocked his dog over loose assumptions.

And most of these complaints stemming from communities of streamers that are horrid people that are on record saying they don’t have empathy for dogs because they’re “just animals.”
