Million-Fan Pet Blogger Embroiled in Abuse Scandal: The Dark Side of ‘Training’ Exposed
On October 27, some netizens posted that they discovered that the pet blogger “Shiba Inu Jinbao” with millions of fans posted a video on social platforms late at night. The video was suspected to be the original unedited video.
The video shows that the blogger kept shouting at the dog and forcefully commanded it to perform various actions.
Some netizens carefully observed many videos posted by “Shiba Inu Jinbao” and found that the pet “Jinbao” never barked in the video. This triggered speculation about whether his vocal cords were damaged, and some netizens questioned whether the blogger had committed dog abuse.
Faced with doubts from netizens, the blogger posted a response: “In the past two days, I have received private message comments, insulting and personally attacking me. First of all, thank you for your concern for ‘Jinbao’. Where is the evidence that I abused ‘Jinbao’? Where is the evidence online? It is said that ‘Jinbao’ had his vocal cords cut, so you can provide evidence and report me with your real name.”
However, the blogger also admitted to embellishment of the video. “Perhaps everyone thinks that the contrast between the sound of the original daily video and the embellished video will make more people love Jinbao. They don’t believe that the original owner treated Jinbao like this. Here are a few simple responses.”
The blogger said that he believes that raising a dog requires understanding the dog’s psychology. The loud sound made by the original video to “Jinbao” is to let him know what is right and wrong. “I personally think that if you don’t educate it in the right way, it’s like the dog is educating you. I don’t think it’s okay to let it do whatever you want. The so-called rewards and punishments are clear.”
Finally, he also said that the edited video was only for everyone to enjoy and did not mislead novice dog owners. “I have told everyone that every dog is smart and needs training. Raise a dog rationally and don’t follow the trend of raising a dog. Raising a dog requires time.”
According to Jinyun reports, the account content of “Shiba Inu Jinbao” mainly highlights the puppy’s intelligence and warm interaction with the blogger. In the video, the puppy is not only smart and able to accurately understand the blogger’s instructions, but also often shows interesting behaviors. The hilarious “little thoughts” have won the love and praise of a large number of netizens.
