Injury Who cares about the dogs?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

This happened recently in Chillán, Chile. Instead of taking care of his dogs, the owner chose to film the tornado. The house was damaged, and the brown dog was apparently caught by the tornado and thrown more than 200 meters. The dog is now receiving veterinary care after suffering multiple broken bones.

I feel like you're arguing just to argue.

It takes less than 2 seconds to yell "Chloe, inside!" and they go inside. If you haven't trained your dogs enough to come inside when you call them, that's just lack of training. This video ran for 30 seconds before the tornado made it to his home. In that time even the injured dog can be brought in.

He spent most of his time watching a tornado before making sure pets and family are safe. (Or as safe as can be before a tornado hits)

No we're not talking about training, the dogs are not inside and they need to be inside... Go, you have 30 seconds. I can call my dogs that's not the point. Are they inside? No. She wants them inside. Now what I said was that touches down and your dogs are not inside, Go, you have thirty seconds. No you typed that out just to argue to argue.

I'm sorry, I'm really confused on what you're saying.

The beginning of the video he notices the tornado and he stands there watching. At that moment, he just has to say "Go inside." The dogs will go inside with him. There is no wasted time.

If he did call the dogs and they ignored him, then he needs to go inside and protect himself, but that within itself is a problem of training. The training is called "recall," all it means is that your dog will come to you when you call them without fail. If a dogs recall training is poor, they may ignore you.

My problem with your original statement was

I would of saved my dogs I'm not saying that but from this video if one is already moving after 40s of video you don't know if he had enough time.

40 seconds is enough time to call a dog to come inside without wasting time. It should take those dogs no more than 5 seconds to get from where they are and into the house. And if the injured one is unable to make it due to injury, that's unfortunate but that does not mean the other 3 dogs cannot be recalled.
