A livestreamer in Toronto is being held accountable for abusing his poor dog, Peaches. The young man who streams under the handle 'Lil Dealy' – was unable to get Peaches back after he was arrested for animal cruelty, which is obviously a victory for the innocent animal. But he can legally still own other animals in the future, and is still allowed to broadcast on the streaming platform, Kick.
Sign the petition to tell Toronto Police to give this man a lifetime ban on animal ownership and Kick to permanently ban him from their streaming platform!
This case should be very simple for both Toronto authorities and folks who run Kick, the Australian livestreaming service where the man was streaming.
The footage from the streaming platform speaks for itself. In the video, the streamer plainly tells the dog that he would "f–ing kill" the poor animal "in front of everyone right here."
In a different clip, Howse is standing in a kitchen, telling the whole world on livestream that he is "literally going to snap" the dog's neck. He also repeatedly smacks Peaches on the head, to which the dog flinches and cowers. This is abuse.
It's simple: no one on any streaming platform should be able to show videos of them abusing or threatening animals and continue creating content. And no one who threatens and hits a dog on video should be able to own animals again, either. It's time for Toronto Police and Kick to take this case seriously and get justice for Peaches! Sign the petition now if you agree!
