The National SPCA are investigating an influencer’s viral TikTok video, which featured a notably starving dog in it. However, the woman – Sasha Tshiamo – claims she is not responsible for the animal.
SPCA INVESTIGATING INFLUENCER’S TIKTOK WITH STARVED ANIMAL
On the X platform, a video of influencer Sasha Tshiamo quickly went viral. But the TikTok had nothing to do with the content creator’s flair for fashion or curvy figure.
Instead, an emaciated dog in the background of the clip had social media users up in arms.
The animal’s ribcage was clearly visible, and it appeared lethargic. Many South Africans called on animal rights activists like the SPCA to intervene.
@Zakhele27520120: “@NSPCA_SA Please, that dog is suffering there, do something 💔”
@Nicole_Barlow1: “Please, do the humane thing and surrender the dog to the nearest @NSPCA_SA. This situation is truly appalling. The blatant cruelty is unimaginable…😡🤬🤬”
Others added:
@Bar1Koekemoer: “Your dog is starving. You are a despicable human being.”
@JLerubako40: “It is said that how a person treats their domestic animals says a lot about what type of person they are.
Speaking to The South African, the SPCA confirmed that they were investigating the incident and would inspect the property where the dog was seen.
‘IT’S NOT MY DOG…RESPONSIBILITY’
While the SPCA has promised a thorough investigation, the influence claimed that she was not responsible for the animal.
Sasha Tshiamo shared on an Instagram Story, ” I don’t know if I must laugh or cry, guys. That’s not my dog.”
Under her TikTok video, a follower appealed to her to feed the dog. She clapped back: “It’s not my responsibility.”
