When Fido Goes Rogue: Why a Rough Kick Offends the Dog‑Tricksters Out There
Imagine you’re leading a squad of ten adorable pups on a scenic walk, and suddenly a silly little corgi drifts ahead like a rebel on a mission. Fear not—here comes the trainer to weave the way back into order.
What Went Wrong?
On March 7th, a clip of this very scenario erupted on Reddit. What was supposed to be a smooth parade of wagging tails turned into a #reckoning:
- The trainer nudges the runaway corgi with her foot.
- When the corgi refuses, she bootes it again—this time hard enough to snap its hind legs off the pavement.
- The resulting video became a viral cautionary tale for pet‑owners worldwide.
Why the Community Raged
Social media users were quick to call the trainer “cruel” and “unnecessary.” The common thread? The trainer’s hand‑hold was far more about domination than coaching and seemed utterly out of line with modern humane training practices.
Critics argued that kick‑based methods do not educate dogs; they incite fear, potentially fostering aggression or anxiety. The video sparked a debate about how trainers should guide pups—emphasizing positive reinforcement over painful corrections.
What You Can Do If Fido Gets Off‑Track
- Patience is 2 peas—stop for a moment and use a friendly, encouraging tone.
- Offer a treat as a reward for staying in the group. It’s like a friendly “good job, buddy!”
- If the dog starts hopping ahead, calmly guide them back to the pack with gentle cues instead of force.
- Consider professional guidance with a trainer who endorses positive training over aggression.
Takeaway
When Fido or any other pup starts running amok, a gentle hand—paired with verbal praise and a tasty reward—works wonders. The viral clip serves as a stark reminder that dogs are sentient beings, not just a mess of fur to misbehave with a boot.
So next time your corgi’s got a dash for adventure, think twice before turning to a hard kick. Instead, embrace kindness, keep the training positive, and watch the pack harmoniously stroll—without any bruises or backlash.

The SPCA Calls Out Harsh Animal Training
A recent video flashed a grim reality: a trainer using escalating, nasty tactics to “correct” an animal. According to the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA), this is nothing short of animal abuse.
What the SPCA Said
- “Those methods must stop. There’s no room for cruelty in pet training.”
- Dog owners hand their companions over to professionals, and that comes with a big responsibility—protecting their furry friends, not hurting them.
- The case has been sent to local authorities for investigation.
How the Authorities are Responding
The Animal and Veterinary Service (AVS) acknowledged the video. They’re currently looking into the incident, assuring the public that the matter isn’t being ignored.
Why This Matters
When trainers resort to harsh techniques, they’re not just breaking training rules—they’re breaching trust. Every pet owner deserves to know that their animal’s wellbeing is in safe, caring hands.
Takeaway
If your pet’s training feels a bit too “intense,” it might be time to call in the SPCA. And hey, a gentle approach keeps tails wagging and hearts happy for everyone involved.
