And the lawsuit!?!? Hello! We live in a totally lawsuit happy society. Anybody who runs a business is likely to be sued for something. It doesnt' mean they're at fault. It doesn't even mean they lose the case. People like to blame somebody!
|
The lawsuit was due to a dog being put on a treadmill, tied to it with a choke chain, and left alone until it collapsed from exhaustion, nearly killing it.

Hours after dropping off the dog, Suarez said, a worker called to tell him the animal had been rushed to a veterinarian. Suarez later found the dog “bleeding from his mouth and nose, in an oxygen tent gasping for breath and with severe bruising to his back inner thighs,” according to the lawsuit.

Tell me, who do you think is at fault if not the training facility?
I would be much more lenient on Cesar himself if he had apologized profusely to the dog's owner, paid all his vet costs, and paid for the emotional distress caused to the dog and owner, but the article ends with the damning "calls were not returned" statement. Even assuming the treadmill-with-choke-chain isn't a Cesar approved training method--which we have no proof for or against--if this man loves animals so much, wouldn't paying the vet bills for this poor dog be the
first thing he'd do? That's just common decency.
