In the video, she said that she was treated for what her family believed to have been a viral infection with "high-dose intravenous vitamin C," and recommended it as a treatment for COVID-19.<a href="https://www.businessinsider.com/wellness-influencers-say-near-lethal-vitamin-doses-prevent-coronavirus-2020-2">Insider reported in February 2020</a> that some wellness influencers were encouraging their followers to take high levels of vitamins to protect themselves from the coronavirus. <a href="https://www.insider.com/what-you-need-to-know-about-vitamin-c-and-coronavirus-2020-4">Insider also reported in April 2020</a> that while some doctors were giving COVID-19 patients vitamin C because their levels were low, it wasn't a "cure" for the disease.Critics online,<a href="https://gurugossiper.com/viewtopic.php?t=33474&amp;start=700=700"> as in one thread on the Gossip Guru forum</a>, said that the title of Phillippi's video was "misleading" and accused her of spreading false COVID-19 treatment.<h2>In late 2020, some said that Phillippi was anti-vaccination following comments she made in a Q&amp;A</h2>In an August 2020 video titled "Vaccines, CBD &amp; Intimacy After Baby!

"If it is the case where the animal is truly unsafe - again, making that decision in consultation with experts and professionals - then maybe it is an appropriate discussion to have with the expert that you're working with. And as heartbreaking as it is, it sometimes happens."<h2>A video of Nikki and Dan discussing canceling an adoption from Thailand resurfaced amid the controversy</h2><a href="https://www.insider.com/nikki-dan-phillipi-adoption-controversial-youtube-video-resurfaced-2021-5">As Insider's Moises Mendez II reported</a>, people online resurfaced a video in which the couple discusses canceling an adoption from Thailand amid the controversy surrounding Bowser's death.In the video, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYUw3Hq8vNg">which is still publicly available on Phillippi's YouTube channel</a> with comments turned off, Nikki and Dan spoke about deciding to not adopt a child from Thailand given what they said was a social media policy that's part of Thai law.

Nikki Phillippi faced backlash for euthanizing the dog that bit her kid. Here's what led to her social-media hiatus and recent return to YouTube.

They also said that the adoption would take a year to finalize. "The kid is gonna be living here in our house for a year, and that whole time it's not our kid. So, not okay with that either," Dan added.Holt <keyword id="6356001" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="international">International</keyword>, the adoption agency the Phillippis said they had worked with, told Insider in an email that the social-media policy is part of Thai adoption law, which restricts the release of an "adopted child's information, photos, videos and films to mass media or Internet before finalization by Thai Law."The couple said they ultimately decided not to go through with the adoption, as they didn't want to cause "harm or repercussions to other people, and an entire organization for that matter" if they ended up breaking the social-media rule.<h2>The video resurfaced after the couple was condemned online for putting down their dog</h2>Some Twitter users said the 2018 footage made it seem like the Phillippis were planning to use their child for social-media content.The resurfaced video has since been shared widely across Reddit and Twitter, in the wake of the couple's early May announcement that they had put down their dog, Bowser, after he bit their toddler. The couple had previously shared content about their dog with followers."Bowser had an aggressive side that reared its ugly head a few times over the years," Nikki wrote in the caption of the since deleted post. She added that the dog had recently bitten Logan.The caption also said, "After a lot of counsel, we decided it was time for Bowser to pass peacefully on."Though an animal expert<a href="https://www.insider.com/nikki-phillippi-husband-put-down-dog-youtube-2021-5"> told Insider</a> that an end-of-life decision may sometimes be an option in cases of aggression, many commenters said the dog should have been rehomed instead. The Phillippis said in a YouTube video about the decision that they had discussed options, including rehoming, with experts. "Some dogs can't live with kids, but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to live," one person said in the comments section of Nikki's now private Instagram post.Phillippi did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.

Footage of a YouTuber saying she canceled an adoption because she wouldn't be able to film the child has resurfaced, shocking viewers

"After a lot of counsel, we decided it was time for Bowser to pass peacefully on."The announcement that Phillippi and her family decided to put the dog down incited backlash online, with viewers and other content creators saying that they should have sought out other options, attempted to mitigate his behavior, or tried to rehome him. But an animal behavior expert told Insider that while no one wants to make an end-of-life decision, the discussion can be appropriate in cases of aggressive <keyword id="6371668" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="60" keywordseo="animals">animals</keyword>."We didn't want to make this decision...as I'm sure you can imagine," the caption on the post reads. "I'm not kidding when I say this was one of the saddest days of my life."Phillippi and her husband Dan elaborated on the decision in a YouTube video posted Monday, saying that Bowser had "seriously injured a couple different <keyword id="32596" type="ORGANIZATION" weightage="60" keywordseo="Dogs">dogs</keyword>" in the past and that he had injured their son Logan after he tried to take food from the dog. She also said that a moment of "aggression" five years ago made them consider putting Bowser down at the time.Phillippi said that they had attempted to find a new home for Bowser, but said that after consulting with a humane society were told that rehoming wasn't an option. "In some ways it's been anticipated for a really long time, and in others, it was completely shocking," Phillippi said in the video. "Never crossed my mind - 'Oh, now we're gonna have to put Bowser down' - I just thought, 'Oh, he's just gotta be in the right home.' But after getting counsel from multiple professionals who are with dogs all the time, all of them said that, they all said the same thing."<h2>Phillippi was quickly criticized for the choice</h2>Followers and members of the YouTube community heavily criticized Phillippi for euthanizing her dog.The comments section of Phillippi's Instagram post is full of critical comments that have racked up thousands of likes. "Shame on you," one commenter wrote on Tuesday. "Some dogs can't live with kids but that doesn't mean they shouldn't be allowed to live," said another. Comments on the YouTube video were turned off. But a clip from the video <a href="https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1389766132484108293">shared on Twitter by DefNoodles</a>, a YouTube watchdog channel, had responses that accused Phillippi of "animal cruelty." One <a href="https://twitter.com/kerrdaniels729/status/1389589961486192642">Twitter user posted a screenshot</a> of Phillippi's Instagram announcement and wrote, "<keyword id="1112328" type="PERSON" weightage="60" keywordseo="Influencers">influencers</keyword> are the real pandemic." Meghan Rienks, an influencer and actress <a href="https://www.instagram.com/meghanrienks/">with over 990,000 followers on Instagram,</a> posted on the platform and tweeted about Phillippi's announcement. Rienks said that Phillippi <a href="https://twitter.com/meghanrienks/status/1389768811406970885?s=20">"could have pulled a myka stauffer,"</a> referencing a parenting influencer who <a href="https://www.insider.com/myka-stauffer-youtube-instagram-backlash-for-rehoming-special-needs-son-2020-5">faced backlash in 2020 for saying that she had "rehomed" her son with developmental disabilities</a> after previously monetizing videos about him. <h2>Handling aggressive pets is difficult and a nuanced issue, an expert said</h2>While many critics said there were other options for the Phillippi family, situations involving aggressive pets can be complicated and must be handled on a case-by-case basis alongside professionals, according to Liv Hagen, the manager of shelter behavior services at the <a href="https://www.animalhumanesociety.org/about/about-animal-humane-society">Minnesota-based Animal Humane Society</a>.Hagen told Insider that when dealing with a dog displaying aggression, you must evaluate the animal's response to certain triggers, and determine whether those triggers and responses are manageable or not. "If you have a dog that you're experiencing some level of aggression with, there are people that can help," Hagen said, but added that she couldn't comment on Phillippi's particular case. Hagen recommended that owners of aggressive pets consult with veterinarians, veterinary behaviorists, or certified behavior consultants. Sometimes, Hagen said, those discussions end with difficult decisions that are never taken lightly - like rehoming an animal or ending its life. Pet owners may euthanize their pets for a variety of other reasons too, like illness, chronic pain, or old age, <a href="https://www.americanhumane.org/fact-sheet/euthanasia-making-the-decision/">according to American Humane,</a> an animal welfare non-profit organization. "An end-of-life decision is not something anyone ever wants to do," Hagen said. "If it is the case where the animal is truly unsafe - again, making that decision in consultation with experts and professionals - then maybe it is an appropriate discussion to have with the expert that you're working with. And as heartbreaking as it is, it sometimes happens."Phillippi did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
