\n\tHasan Piker \u2014 the popular leftist political streamer who\u2019s gained increasing mainstream prominence since Donald Trump retook the presidency \u2014 has become embroiled in controversy over the treatment of his dog Kaya, a perpetual presence in the background of his feed at his home in West Hollywood. <\/p>\n

\n\tA clip<\/a> from his Oct. 7 stream went viral after viewers alleged Piker, who has three million followers on Twitch (as well as millions more on other social media<\/a> platforms), activated a shock collar on the pet while seemingly frustrated with her behavior.<\/p>\n

\n\tPiker has denied the claim, explaining that Kaya in fact wears a training collar which vibrates, with an AirTag attached, and that she accidentally \u201cclipped herself\u201d while rising from her bed when the incident occurred, which produced a yelp that provoked particular concern. However, critics have remained skeptical, zooming in on footage of what they consider a telltale green blinking light, characteristic of a shock collar, and circulated an old video clip of Piker admitting<\/a> to owning one and describing it as \u201cincredibly effective.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tNow, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is weighing in. In a statement to The Hollywood Reporter<\/em>, the advocacy group says, \u201cHasan Piker has denied using a shock collar on his dog, and we hope that\u2019s true because shock collars are dangerous and downright cruel. They put dogs at risk of burn wounds, chronic anxiety, and displaced aggression.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tPETA added, \u201cpositive reinforcement is a far more effective training method and doesn\u2019t betray our animal companions\u2019 trust in us.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n
