On January 19, Pan Hong, an online influencer with 16.6 million followers who is known as “Pan Hong Loves Playing with Dogs”, faced a backlash after an incident during a live stream led to the death of a popular Alaskan Malamute called Aite while bathing.
Pan operates a dog training facility and offers free services to help owners correct the behaviour of their pets.
Aite was one of the most notable dogs under Pan’s care, and was affectionately referred to as a “star dog” in his training centre.
During the livestream, viewers noticed troubling signs when Aite resisted the bath and struggled, prompting Pan to tie its mouth with zip ties.
