Brook is the epitome of ‘I just want a cute thing and don’t want to actually put in the effort to take care of it’

[@FARSIKATZ]

No it’s actually very much the opposite, she’s trying to hard to train him to be a calm idealistic dog, which causes stress over long periods of time. She’s trying so hard it’s wearing her thin which causes a short temper.. which in turn can cause abusive scenarios. It’s ALOT more complex in her case, she’s not just abusive by nature. The dog type she got can also be extremely hard to train, takes more of an owner unbothered by jumping and other behaviors, she’s strictly training the dog which is causing a strain between the two, it sucks because I KNOW she loves that dog. It’s just a bad combo honestly but it’s much much more complex then this comment states. This comment is actually the exact opposite.

[@moosenman]

@@FARSIKATZ Well maybe if you’re going to start hitting the dog, you should give it to someone else, regardless of why the abuse occurred. Abuse is still abuse. Regardless of if she’s being lazy or working too hard, she is abusing that dog. I’ve had hyper dogs and never hit them. It’s not that hard.

@@FARSIKATZ I think she wanted a Doberman because they’re pretty dogs but if she would’ve done her homework she would’ve known you have to train them or even get them trained. She probably didn’t tho and thats why she’s frustrated with the dog even though it’s her fault for not doing her homework. And sadly that happen a lot that people get a pet without knowing what the pet needs and they end up at the animal shelter

@@FARSIKATZ Stress can cause you to lash out but it doesnt cause you to spit on the dog. That's one of the most disrespectful things you can do, most people won't even do that to HUMANS, it shows complete disregard and disrespect for the life of her pet. It was malicious. Maybe she loves her dog, but she clearly can't take care of him. Once you realize you cant take care of your dog properly, you do two things: step up or give him to someone who can. She refused to do either because she could profit off of him.

[@Tazkar]

There are certain kinds of pranks that are amusing with animals. Not ones that in anyway could injure or torment them though(Since as you said they don't understand, also I fully agree that she was mistreating the dog). Namely I recall one where the owner held a blanket up in front of them self and then let it drop while moving elsewhere so that the owner 'vanished' the reaction from their pets was just hilarious as they tried to figure out where their owner went "They were here a moment ago!"

[@Tazkar]

@raisin and popcorn1234 I agree and I am not trying to defend Brooke in the slightest. I was just remarking that it's not inherently 'wrong' to play a prank on your pet. More that you have to do so in a manner far different than you would another human because as Mystic said they don't understand. So you have to make sure you are not inadvertently tormenting them with your 'prank'

[@bernhardinek]

Well I don't think pranks are too bad, but it depends what they are. If it's more of a game, I think it's okay. For example, Putting a dog treat under a cup and starting a timer to see how long it takes for your dog to find and eat the treat. Nothing harmful there. In fact, it might even be good mental stimulus for them. It all depends what kinds of "pranks" or games you are playing with your dog.

[@mysticmouse7673]

When my lady and I lived apart we both had to walk our dogs (she had some, I had some) like 5, 6x a day, when we moved in together we looked for a large full plot yard (all around the house) so we walk them 4x and let them rough house and play with each other in the yard. And then around like 11pm they are satisfied and tired out. So much energy in big dogs, it's important to let them stretch their legs. My first instict when I saw Brooke mistreating her pup was 'Let me venmo her to get the dog' but I imagine she'd just get another dog to abuse if it came with views. Plus, don't really want to give any positive result to this nasty woman. Just realized your comment is 2 months old, my bad.

[@stewieismyhomeboy]

Seriously, half the shit she is angry at Sphinx for is Sphinx wanting attention. NEWSFLASH: dogs are incredibly clingy animals. They will bug you in the middle of the night because they want to cuddle. They will get so excited to see you that they will jump on you and knock you over. I personally like this, because it is validating that another being actually likes me that much when I don't even like me that much. But if you don't like animals that want to cuddle, play, and be affectionate, might I suggest a goldfish?

Jacob Top It depends on what you mean by agressive tbh. Also dogs do have different personalities. While changes in your tone may work for some, others may need other forms of correction. My current girl is incredibly stubborn and quite capable of ignoring my tone at times. But should I ignore her and progress to sending her to her crate for a time out, THAT she pays attention to.

I had an abusive father who abused my mother when I was a child and she told me how he'd blame her and she'd feel like it was her fault if he got mad or hurt her and the whole "not real abuse" thing is the same way my mother was made to feel about her abuse and a big reason she didn't leave sooner. Seeing movies where women were covered in bruises head to toe after being abused and the way her husband acted like nothing he was doing was abusive made her believe that the little bruises she had and the guns being held to her head were just the result of her being a bad wife and she thought it was what she deserved.

The kind of love that exists between owner and pet is one of the purest and truest things I’ve ever encountered, and the thought of someone taking that love and devotion and twisting it into something as ugly and horrible as what Brooke did to her dog is despicable. My cat is one of the greatest things in my life, and I can’t even think about something happening to him that would cause him pain for a moment because when I do I start crying.

Brooke hurt him so much that he attacked other dogs, flinched when around her, and wasn't trained at all. SHE was a bad owner.

[@charleenlangley8709]

@@the_great_mammon Even when a dog has issues, it's up to the owner to identify and figure out how to deal with them. For example, my foster mum's dog, Rebel, was a beautiful Black Labrador. He was raised in a female-dominated environment, and only really tolerated 2 men - my foster dad, and my foster sister's husband. Because the first gave him scraps and the second would give him scruff massages that would have him flopped on the floor and snoring like a chainsaw. So Rebel didn't mind attention and affection from women and children because that consisted of 90% of his interaction at home, what he grew up with as the norm. One instance of this causing 'issue' was an old man up the woods who tried to pet Rebel - Rebel deliberately moved away and gave the man an obvious 'don't touch me' look. He didn't bark or growl, but it was very clear how he moved away and then postured himself that he didn't want the man touching him. This man then moved to touch him again, and this time I stepped in, telling the man that he doesn't want to be touched and he needs to leave him alone. There was little risk of Rebel hurting the man, and I stepped in only because I knew my old boi's boundaries - I was 9 years old when we first got him and 14 by the time I walked him, and I walked him until I was 19, because he passed away shortly after I moved out, and I walked him only a few times when visiting. Another example is of a retired Greyhound we met while at a market - his vest announced that he was fostered, looking for a forever home, and to go to this website/phone number/email if interested. My foster mum loved Greyhounds and spoke to the man, and we learnt that due to his abusive race-owners being men, he now had a phobia of men. This was of course much worse than our dog - Rebel wasn't afraid of men, he just wasn't interested in them (tho he did see them as a potential threat if they got too close to me, he showed signs of being wary then). This dog only trusted his male rescuers, and that was after months of building trust, and so they wanted him to go to a female owner where he wouldn't have to be immediately subjected to the anxieties of being around men from the get-go to begin the healing process. These are mild issues a dog might have, compared to aggressive tendancies, but the point is that if you have a dog, it's *your* job to work out their quirks and find good solutions.

I mean everyone has been frustrated with their dog, yelled at it or even been over the top at times, what struck me though..what made me think "uh oh,this girl ain't right in the head" is was when she spit in its face! Lile sure the dog doesn't understand that,but we do. It shows us how she feels about the dog,no matter how mad i am i would never spit in the face of a loved on,animal or not. It is a form of deep seeded disrespect. I cant even begin to imagine what it would be like to date her,i imagine she is extremely vapid and narcissistic. It wouldn't surprise me if she was physically abusive to her partners as well.

[@tinabeana4495]

I'm not sure how the spitting part is what does it for you? To me the spitting doesn't seem like it'd really do anything to the dog, I can't see it understanding what it was? The pressing her dog to the ground would run more of a risk of hurting the dog.

This is the first time in my life I haven’t had at least one dog, I can name and remember each one for over 50 years. Judy, Soames and then Lassie were the dogs that had an affect on my childhood and early adulthood. With Otis, Makeda and Franklyn effecting my adult life and Otis especially saw me through some bad times. I’m no longer able to walk a dog and I’m often too ill to even go out on my mobility scooter so it just wouldn’t be fair. I’m one of those people who like both dogs and cats and thankfully we have a brilliant 21 year old cat that has more character than any cat I've known. He is costing us a fortune in pet bills as he has a dodgy liver and a growth on his lower bowel, I don’t resent a penny and he is still very happy and spoilt. When you get a pet, be it from a good breeder, rescue place or the newspaper you sign a contract with that animal to treat it kindly and with respect. She did not do that, she used that dog for clout and nothing more. As for the guy with the miniature schnauzer, really? You let someone throw your dog around and you did nothing? You’re not on any higher ground in my book. To me she’s just like the Stauffers and has the same mentality of using a living being for clout. If you read my comment, which I doubt, I did it on purpose as it’s a pet hate of mine too. It’s like people mixing up 'lend' and 'borrow' and 'who' and 'whom'.

[@Greywind920]

Direct quote from Brooke- “I’m going to train him so he won’t provoke me again.” That is literally proof that she is abusive, she just basically admitted to it. What I heard was "I can't control myself or my anger so he better learn to control himself and act how I want when I want or I'll abuse him". The poor thing didn't do anything wrong, she made it clear that it was PLAYTIME. They are large, high energy dogs. She got him riled up and he wanted to keep playing and she didn't so instead of telling him sternly to stop and sit down she chose to scream, beat him and spit on him. He is terrified of her, he flinches every time she moves, so does the cat. It's horrifying to watch. This girl is a psychotic abuser and if she was male she would have been charged with abuse and her social media presence would be OBLITERATED. #cancelled But because she has stupid, like-minded and probably abusive 12-year-old girls obsessed with her she still has fans. And somehow she did not get charged for the abuse of this animal. That case should be reopened, no judge here in Canada would allow her to get away with this. The US has such a crooked justice system, this is unbelievable. People like her and Onision abuse people and animals, expose themselves and never suffer the legal or social consequences that they should because of DUMB, young fans who are going to do whatever these influencers do. There's going to be an influx of young girls in hospital with dog bites after this, you watch.

[@Jayce_Alexander]

Former Doberman owner here, and I gotta say I'm really glad cropping and docking was outlawed here. They're lovely pets, and they deserve much better than to be surgically adjusted for aesthetic purposes.

[@Carriesue1982]

Jayce Nothing wrong with cropping and docking if done correctly by a qualified vet. The same people who say it’s cruel are also the same people that rip their dogs reproductive organs out when they’re still growing puppies which can increase cancers risks, increase adrenal issues, joint issues, weight gain, coat changes, increase aggression, etc. That’s totally okay since it’s makes the owners life more convenient and they can’t be bothered to do their research on how early spay/neuter negatively effects dogs later in life.

[@emberznebula7040]

Cropping and docking does not lessen the quality of a dogs life. The crop and dock is a common practice and if done properly has more benefits then harms. (there are no harms, btw) Spay and neuter, is a common thing and has many risks both to the health of a dog and has risks during the surgery. Most dogs are spayed/neutered prematurely (in particular, as late spay and neuter can be beneficial) which can cause issues to bones, causes some forms of cancer, overall structure of the dogs chest and face, and hormones balances during development. Like stunting a child during puberty. But no one goes around calling THAT abuse. Nah fam, crop and dock is where the abuse is. That's what we need to fight against.

[@ambrosiadreamer]

I had a rottie/golden mix, a lot more rottie than golden (rest in peace Shelby, I’ll always love you), and she had a full tail.

[@Krissykaypie]

I have a terrible temper. I've snapped at my dog at times, never hit her, would never hit her but I've felt awful guilt for losing my temper and yelling. So I tried to put my feet in her shoes and liken the yelling and guilt that I felt over it and thought about how I would address the public in an apology if I was called out for yelling at my sweet baby girl. The thing that struk me the most is in both "apologies " she never says that shes loves her dog. First thing that came to my mind was, that is the first thing I would think to say. I would say how much I loved my dog and how much joy she brings me, and I would say how she doesnt deserve anything other than my best self and pure love from me at all times because that is all she ever gives me. This girl has zero capacity to love or care for anything other than herself. That poor dog doesnt have a chance. Even if she never hits it again or threatens it that dog will never get real love from her it's whole doggy life and that is so heartbreaking to me.

The thought of an adult smacking an animal that can't say "that hurts" is infuriating. I know animals aren't babies (who also can't say "that hurts") but DAMN it's painful to see. There are some people who just don't deserve the unconditional love animals offer. Even after the dog's smacked, it comes back for pets. So sad.

[@BrutalBambi]

1. If she didn’t like the dogs behaviour, she should’ve be on top of training when Sphinx was a pup 2. She has already in a way abused the pup by docking it’s tail and ear trimming. Those things don’t naturally occur in that particular breed, so she did it for aesthetics and appearance. 3. There are many ways to go about instilling the knowledge that you don’t like that behaviour, ignoring the dog until a behaviour you want is given is just one example. This woman should never have gotten the dog, it was obvious from the start that she was doing it for views and didn’t have the right intentions for the dog. It’s quite sad to see, as Sphinx obviously loves her unconditionally and she just treats Sphinx harshly.

Somehow there's people out there like her and Alinity that don't realize (?!?) they're abusing their animals. I hope this opened people's eyes that abuse isn't always broken and bloody. Sometimes it's hitting, pushing, screaming, spitting, giving vodak and throwing. It's beyond unacceptable and sad for these animals. Animals deserve better.

As someone who is an animal behaviourist and trainer (by no means an absolute expert), having looked at her dog videos it is clear that a lack of training and exercise seem to be the causes of the issues she has with dog. Whenever she asks him to sit and such he ignores her, and he never settles as he jumps all over her, the house and the cat. From what I gather she uses a prong collar not to "correct" the dog or because he's got "high drive", it's because he doesn't get much exercise and hasn't been trained to walk on a lead calmly. If she exercised him more, did training with him and was consistent with both of these things this situation could have been avoided (maybe, even if he was calm and trained she may have still hit him seeing as she clearly has some issues). I do remember her mentioning in a vid that she loved the attention she got when in public with the dog. I find this saddening as Dobermans are used as sport and protection dogs due to their energy and drive, abusing a dog as he's irritating you as you can't mentally and physically stimulate him is saddening...
