• A short clip from Piker’s October 7 Twitch stream shows his dog, Kaya, yelp after he scolded her, prompting allegations that he used a shock collar to keep her in view.
• Piker told viewers the sound came from Kaya clipping herself while getting off the bed and he rejected accusations of abuse.
• Prominent creators including Tectone, Ethan Klein, xQc, and LosPollosTV criticized Piker publicly after the clip spread.
• Commenters cited Piker’s prior acknowledgment that he owns a shock collar, while others argued the device on Kaya was an AirTag-style collar or that she hit her dew claw.
• Users urged reports to Los Angeles animal services and pressed Twitch to act, but no official inquiry or platform enforcement had been reported.
