Unraveling the Dark Deeds of YouTubers: Analyzing the Controversial Behavior of Brooke Houts and The Ace Family, a Case of Online Misconduct and Questionable Ethics
@StephanieHarlowe
Hi guys! I understand the glare from my ring light is distracting to some of you. I spend a lot of time on computers so I have a blue light coating on my glasses which causes that glare. I will try and see if there’s a way I can avoid this in future videos. I’ll ask google.
@Nik-ei9st
Haven’t seen the video she’s referring to but
1. Yes, a dog could need training, but talk to any dog trainer and they’ll tell you: the dogs want to learn and they can learn quickly. The problem is always you. You’re not listening to them, you’re not being clear, you’re not being confident, you’re not being consistent, you’re not willing to change or admit when you’re doing the wrong thing. In other words: Any trainer will tell you: training the dog is easy, training the client is the hard part. (Especially a Doberman, like it’s not even a frenchie or a husky that are known for being stubborn lol)
2. I will disagree with Stephanie on one point, a Doberman jumping at your face is very different than a lab jumping at your face. They are bulky, strong, muscular, pushy, powerful, and they can have natural aggression/guarding issues, especially in non neutered males. Some of the large ones are built like a truck. it can be very intimidating if you have a particularly nippy one
3. That being said…. Why the hell would you get a Doberman if you weren’t thinking about training? Dobermans aren’t common, you have to want one. And if you’re willing to search them out, why would you not research the breed first? Preferably meet some healthy, happy adult ones? Like yeah, there are some very sweet chill or anxious Dobermans, but they’re not necessarily the norm. And they have needs. A strong, knowledgeable hand is like a requirement. And when I say strong, I mean like steady, confident, intentional, understanding, firm, and consistent. Wildly overreacting on your dog is none of these things.
4. And of course, this was definitely not the first time. She’s not even apologizing to the dog, just the viewers.
In conclusion: I can see a world where her Doberman is jumping on her, he’s accidentally nipped her in the past, and she got spooked and overreacted in an attempt to control the situation because she was intimidated. Which would mean this has happened multiple times, so much so they’ve looked at training. This is unfortunate, because they bought a Doberman which should have gotten consistent training throughout its life by professionals, especially since the owner obviously doesn’t know what they’re doing. They decided not to, and the dog has to suffer without knowing why. The owner feels her actions were overall appropriate despite her clear negligence and involvement in creating that escalating scenario.

Stephanie Harlow when are you going out yourself to Chris Hansen

Hurting children is worse than hurting dogs

I think I know what your son named his stuffed octopus 😂
@durdanakhan224
100% do to her as she did to him! And dogs are the same as a child. a dogs age is equivalent to a 2 year old,
@JenesisX
If you lack patience, don't get a dog. It really is that simple. They're going to become attached to you, and you become their entire world. Treating a dog the way she did is cruel and completely inappropriate.
@aleisaetheridge8682
I cant stand people like the Ace Parents the poor kids have no choice in what their idiot parents put them through and theyre still doing ignorant things all the time so I hope the speed they had has diminished by now and I dont want to watch any of their videos so I dont know .I will never get the family bloggers and the awful practical horrible "jokes" they play on their children and the making them cry and all that and why anyone watches that stuff .
@infogirl314
People who say that’s animal cruelty are stupid. What she did is exactly what dogs do with each other to establish who is the alpha. I didn’t see the dog bleeding and he kept coming back. You shouldn’t let the animals dominate you, but it doesn’t mean you don’t love the animal.
@sheoulgra
Ok i am on your side with almost all except for the dog jumping situation. A 75 pound dog doesnt need to jump up to show affection. Imagine the dog jumps up on a kid like that … my dog is a bernese mountain dog mix with around 100 pounds. I am not a small or weak woman but if he jumps up at me with his weight i need every ounce of strength to keep my ground. Thats why you do ur best to train them. Showing affection is a must have but jumping on u is for both human and animal dangerous. Thats why i for example sit down with my dog and he can snuggle in . Its for both of us a lot safer. Do i think she is an abuser ? yes . This woman needs to be away of animals. Definetley . You can see she has no idea to handle her dog nor this breed. And this can be dangerous… for everyone around them
@anitayoung7230
Wow.. the animal police treated this poor dog like cps handles kids… Ohio has Goddard's law against people who neglect or harm a pet .. as a fifth degree felony..
I hope she suffers where it really hurts her.. in her pocketbook
@Childrenarecuterthandogs3005
Abusing animals not the same as abusing a child abusing a child is a far more heinous crime and Stephanie before you come at me and say no abusing an Animal is the same as abusing a child let me ask you this question Do you eat children I highly fucking doubt it are you vegan or vegetarian and I highly fucking doubt it you can’t claim that abusing an animal is the same as abusing a child if you do something to an animal that you would never do to a child
@cindinunn6404
That damn glare is hilarious. Looks a bit freaky.
@JezzaM77
Last week, here in Australia, a Rottweiler and a cattle dog attacked and killed a 4 year old boy. By the time several people got the dogs off the child, the boy was barely recognizable. Were those two dogs helpless?
@scarlettg6136
So Brooke says she only behaves this way when she is angry, frustrated, or had a bad week. I believe she would lash out at any animal, child, or adult. How disgusting! There are no excuses. No creature should be in her care. And you're right, they love you no matter what abuse you incur. It's all the dog's fault she behaves this way. She is too stupid to realize what she did wrong. I do believe I heard a small child in the background. Terrifying.
@Coyote.five.0
stupid people doing stupid things dosent make all youtubers look stupid it only make them look stupid but in reality it gives you content and views and something to talk about when you dont have nothing to post or am i wrong ?
i dont want to come up as passive aggressive lol but its the sad true🤞😁
@emend8298
I’d like to spit in Brooke’s face and see how well she listens after
@valeriewarlick1115
Hey Stephanie you should do an update on the Ace family and their new and ridiculous scandals. oh and especially the Catherine vs Shyla mess.
@100gds2
Okay, alright but…dogs aren't children, they're dogs. It's utterly stupid how people humanize animals like they're babies and dehumanize actually babies. How does that work exactly?
@vanessaprante1648
I bought this same espresso machine and it is hands down the best outside of a coffee shop.
@Momlyfe3
We don’t just beat our animals just because we have bad days. 😡 the poor dog thought she was trying to play with him. And we heard her spit on him, and what exactly did that do for her. I hope she got her dog taken. And god it’s so sad seeing her abuse him then he still runs right back to her for her love and attention and she just hits him again. Poor baby. 😩
@jade-wr9pn

@carissaraeee7947
Lol! My daughters octopus’s name was “octopussy” lmao! But like you said, I can laugh about it with people and tell them about it second hand, but I would never show them a video or post a video on social media of her saying it and laughing, knowing that I’m laughing for a different reason. That’s just weird
@megancolasono1108
She is dog blaming! What a twat thing to say. She needs to train him I guess and he needs either hand signal commands or verbal commends. Don’t slap your dog girl. It’s illegal to slap your dog not spit.
@Juli-ge4yp
If this is what she does to her dog on camera. I hate to imagine what she does off camera.😡
@traceymcdonald7949
She posts all those videos with that dog so it is used to the camera coming out and that it means it's "time to perform" so that is what he is trying to do. She ONLY wants that poor pup for making videos and getting views
@dijanaokugic8038
See, this is the reason, why i hate people and, instead, love and trust only animals.
@amandaflack4421
I am so pissed at this girl… but I absolutely LOVE the way you shredded her lame ass apology. BROOK DOES INDEED NEED TRAINING
@heathergabbysalomon3614
I have a new family member he was born on the 4th of July . so I named him Theodore Blaze Teddy for short . we have tho thing we're we "talk" to each other I say I love and he tries to but once it's all done we both are howling with our necks stretched an our face toward the heavens ever day ots our talking time an I wouldn't trade it for anything else I'll post some on the til tik lol my son will have to help its goona be called something lol old yet
@heathergabbysalomon3614
That pup just wanted to play 😭
@dahliacheung6020
She needs anger management and to not have a pet. Disgusting.
That shove you left in at the end made a fire flare up in me.
I'm glad I didn't see the video. I know this was two years ago but sheesh so upsetting made me so mad. That poor doggo baby
@SpatterTwistDuoShock
Cesar is awful if you actually look into his training technique. He hurts dogs and dogs' relationships with humans. Do not recommend him or his training tactics at all
@theworld340
Why did I want him to just fall over the edge I think I need therapy lol as for dog abuse she ain't coming bk from that ppl will remember defenseless animals my put gets treated better than me lol x
@katrinaosorio2134
The Ace parents are trash..
@hannahstone4323
i don’t understand the pinning down either. behaviorists have proved that the pinning down and growling “technique” thats literally old as dirt btw DOES NOT WORK. it causes an alpha mentality and will more than likely lead to being bit as it should…if i was that dog the moment she challenged me i would have bit and you cannot expect an animal to act like a person and they should have to be…they are pets and if your dumb enough to challenge a carnivore your dumb enough to get bit.
@babesmagee1
Her treatment of that dog is disgusting. I did watch the video. This is a dog thinking he's playing and is on the verge of zoomies. In the t.v. reflection and the noise from the kitchen, she is hitting and kicking him. It is animal cruelty and abuse. People who don't understand that shouldn't have animals.
@gallettiguitartones
I love cats, I would never think of someone that can abuse my babies, they're the most absolute precious babies ever, I was a dog person first. Now I love both cats and dogs ❤ I now rescue cats, have saved 10 this year 🙏 and I have 2 cats too. 🐈
@ScammersUniverse5347
I watched the video she did spit on the dog, you could hear her spit on him. That is a dobby and if it turns on her, honestly I think she,would deserve it. Yes she hit and kicked him. She does not need any animal or child.
@notyourconcern3827
I detest the Ace family, they're absolutely obnoxious and they're gonna raise their kids to be just as disrespectful and shady.😠🤬
@yannasmith9347
Why she just didn’t tell him to stop not even trying to b funny it be the simplest thing she’s probably always mean so im pretty sure hes used to her being like that he just wanted some love damn
@hannahrussler3124
You’re my favorite YouTuber ever forever. The end.
@krystiebritton5686
Just resubscribed again…
@Alero228
I watched the video of that poor dog. My stomach is in knots and I feel nauseous. I can’t imagine how he felt. Poor baby. I hope he is in a better home with someone who loves him.
@comicswithliz5136
I watched the video and it was scary, the way she forcefully pushed him down, and it sounded like she spit at him, I almost cried at the part where she chased him yelling, her dogs body language seemed like he was trying to cheer her up or encourage play
@chelsealynnthibodeaux1111
This video is SO heartbreaking. I know it's an old video, but I hope that dogs ok. Unfortunately there's a lot of underground dog fighting in L.A. county, we have a lot of it in New Orleans too. I've adopted 2 pitbulls who were saved from fighting camps. The abuse and slaughter of "bait dogs" crushes me. I definitely see what she did as abuse, but I know it does sadly take a lot for officials to remove an animal from the owner.
@davidpatrickbeavers9233
Some people should not have animals, nor children. End of story.
@foxymama2003
I hadn’t heard that drama so this was new to me. My heart broke for Sphinx! I hope this woman gets help before having a child because she has a problem and children are just as trusting as that poor pupper! I could NOT hurt my precious dog EVER! He knows when he does something like gets in the trash or potties in the house, that he shouldn’t do and looks so guilty that I could never yell at him! He is a dog and I am responsible for getting a trash can he can’t get into and making sure he is let out to potty regularly! MY responsibility not his! SHE needs training,!
Edit: I paused the video made this comment before you got to the same conclusion as I did about her having children! I am a mom also and I have always said that dogs are children who never grow up and reach independence! So I agree that it is a very similar situation!
Edit 2 I love that money quote and will add advice to the Ace Family “ To whom much is given, much is required.”
@crystalpeterson8730
Ace family are just selfish And everything is staged it’s dumb
@dianarosillo6267
Watching this in 2021 while the ace family is in a million lawsuits wondering what Stephanie is thinking now 🤔
@wanchanga22
Oooooo she should do a follow up with whats happening right now with the Ace family. Looooooved to hear her take on it.
