> Instead of exploring his relationship with his dog (owner/accessory)
All of this comment points to you needing to gain some emotional maturity. You sound as if you've either never owned a dog or have only ever owned already trained dogs.
I can grab a piece of paper loudly and my dog will crumple as if I've beaten her every day of her life. Never hit her once. Never shocked her with a collar, only ever used the beeps and vibration. All I need to do is pick up the remote and she will *cower*. Mind you, I shower this dog with love every day and again — I've never once hurt her besides maybe stepping on her tail.
I think *you* need to exhibit some personal growth here, tbh. If your reasons for disliking Hasan stem from this one incident vs the *blatant* hypocrisy he'd already shown (like purchasing a mansion) — you need to rethink some things.

It’s disappointing that you discredit criticism of harm to another living creature while considering materialism like a house a bigger hypocrisy. They’re not mutually exclusive. And you’re correct, I have never “owned” a dog. I’ve shared my life journey with many, but I didn’t “own” them. They’re not property even if the law and society view them as such. You conditioned your dog to cower at the sight of you picking up a remote? For fuck’s sake, you conditioned your dog to cower at a behavior that resulted in no physical consequence, just the idea it could result in physical consequence. What the fuck is wrong with you!?!
