Some netizens came in to the defense of Cristine.
One Instagram user with handle @i.am.annep says dog breeds like Siberian, alaskan huskies, and alaskan malamutes are snow dogs and they are very hyper.
“They’re not exploited instead they are well looked after. I feel more sorry for these dogs when people bring them in the tropics as a pet or don’t even walk them,” she wrote on the comment section.
