Yep, the shock collar thing is a mass hysteria / psychosis event.
The dog caught its dewclaw on the way of stepping up to its bed platform thing.
Just so happened to coincide with Hasan waving his arm around.
D being the dewclaw.
Very common for older dogs to do this on accident and yelp sharply in pain, its roughly like massively stubbing your unshoed toe as a human.
By the way, its also a sign of a good dog owner that Kaya has a specific place to be in Hasan’s streaming room… its her zone, her territory, but also within a space that allows her to be physically close to Hasan.
Thats an uncommonly nice thing for a dog owner to do, to know that well socialized dogs get lonely and bored, and they are more at ease, less stressed, when they can just be with their ‘pack’, their family.
I barely ever watch Hasan, and… well, I’ve lived with 3 different dogs from ages approx 1 to age approx 8 to 10… we would adopt strays or unwanted dogs from the local dog pound or owners who didnt want them anymore, so they’d often been abused or hit by a car or something like that, and we gave them a home… staggered out the adoptions a bit, after first dog was a few years older, introduce younger second dog, manage the introduction phase, train them too, now they have a dog friend, older one eventually dies, wait 6 months to a year, get another unwanted one.
I don’t have to see much footage of Kaya to know that anyone who is certain Kaya is some kind of chronically abused dog is an actual idiot who has suddenly become a dog expert.
That dog is getting older, but is obviously not afraid of Hasan, nor anyone, is very well mannered and friendly, easy around people.
That is not how an abused dog acts.
They act like they have PTSD, because they do, and it takes usually at least a year to get them to realize they can really trust you and start to relax a bit… abused dogs are very much more quick to both fear and anger, much more likely to bristle at amd bark or even attack people they both do and don’t know.
Kaya is basically a lazy comfortable kind of goofy oaf that doesn’t seem like she’s ever had any real reason to fear anything.
One of our dogs… she maybe actually, fully barked 3 times in her life, ever.
Nothing was wrong with her throat or mouth or jaw.
She had been beaten everytime she barked for the first year of her life, and then crammed into a small, dark, cold cage in a garage, by her previous owners.
She would basically do something like a kind of quivering, uncertain grumble, … and it took her 3 years with us before she wasn’t also literally physically quaking in fear while doing so, took her that long to realize that… we weren’t going to hit her for making noise.
Only barked maybe 3 times ever, in her whole life and… they were all basically like a guys voice cracking while going through puberty, because she had literally no idea how to bark.

Thank you, well said. This is better than anything I could write.
