Dogs
All about dogs - dog breeds, dog training and behavior, news affecting dog owners or handlers, puppy pics, etc.
Rules (Will be refined later on).
-
Don't be a dick. This should cover most things, just keep in mind that everyone started somewhere and try to be helpful rather than rude or judgmental.
-
No personal attacks based on training style or tools.
Discussion of balanced training including proper use of aversives is allowed here. -
All breeds and mixes are welcome. You can criticize backyard breeding practices but don't pile on people because they own a specific breed or prefer purebreds or mixed breeds.
-
Do not support backyard breeders or puppy mills. Please do not link to or suggest buying from high volume breeders or those with an obvious lack of standards and testing.
-
Do not help or support fake service animals. Please do not encourage people to buy fake service dog vest or ESA letters to get around rental or other restrictions & do not give advice on how to misrepresent a dog as a service or support animal.

Jesus.
There are multiple kinds of laughs, including stress. From the rest of the article it seems pretty clear that the dog was just enormously inbred, like all English bulldogs are, and the groomers at worst didn't know they shouldn't place a crime against nature in the drying chamber.
The missing video is clearly suspicious but it's only thirty seconds of an already distressed dog. My (unsupported) guess is the cover-up is them not wanting to show the groomers panicking ineffectively. Thirty seconds just isn't really that long, they could have been literally choking him and it still wouldn't have killed a healthy dog.
As for the disclaimer at the start?
This getting coverage having NOTHING to do with the dog being owned by a manager at the company?
