Man Finds Out That His Narcissistic Sister Has Been Beating His Dog, Gets Mad At His Parents For Allowing It

Even when used with the appropriate force, timing, and redirection, hitting or beating is believed to deter negative behaviors. Aversive methods focused on pain, however, come with risks.

According to studies, they dramatically worsen stress, negatively impact a dog's quality of life, and may even make dogs more aggressive. One of the main dangers of hitting or abusing a dog is that it can lead people to believe that we (and all other humans) are the ones who cause their suffering.

Because of this, it is crucial to change the direction of our aversive corrections. Our dog will learn to associate a hand or a human getting close to him or her as a threat if we spend the majority of the time physically disciplining our dog without using the necessary redirection.

There could be numerous reactions to being beaten, but for the OP, his dog became miserable as he became unusually depressed and also scared. The thing is, OP left home after his first university year because he got a 6-month apprenticeship at a very good place.

His older sister is a despicable narcissistic bully, and she is incredibly irrationally hateful. OP left his dog in his family's care only to get back, and his dog had changed.

The OP found out that his sister had been physically abusing his dog for the past few months, and he was furious about it.
