'Dangerous' pet video trend slammed by veterinary nurse: 'It's not cute - it's harmful'
Briefly

A veterinary nurse has warned against a viral TikTok trend where pet owners spin their animals by the front legs. Jade, a trained veterinary nurse, emphasizes the potential danger this practice poses, including strain on joints and possible dizziness or injuries. She urges responsible pet ownership and highlights that even larger animals can be harmed. Jade specifically mentions vulnerable breeds like French bulldogs and dachshunds, advocating for the safety and well-being of pets over social media popularity.
This puts unnecessary strain on your pet's joints/muscles and can make them feel dizzy and nauseous, all for the sake of a few views.
By picking your animals up under the front legs, you put a lot of pressure and strain on the shoulders, the elbows, the muscles and the ligaments.
