Laura Escanes is excited about her Rock, a friendly chocolate brown poodle that she won’t let go of. The influencer has shared dozens of stories in which she is seen educating him, trying to get him to respond to basic commands such as sitting, lying on the floor or giving his paw.
And the presenter of the podcast Between the sky and the clouds does so by speaking to him in English, Spanish and Catalan, although this costs him criticism from some users, who claim that they do not understand anything he says.
Escanes gives him four orders: “Seu. La poteta. Volta. Al terra.” The dog fulfills them perfectly and the influencer celebrates it in style, as seen in his Instagram stories.
Then, criticism from users arrives, although she does not hesitate to answer them. “Whore. My goodness, what a palazzo,” one responds. But the influencer is happy to say: “Juan, darling. Patita in Catalan is poteta. Pata, pota. Any more translations that might interest you on a Sunday morning.”
It is not the first time that the Catalan has received criticism for this issue. Escanes also speaks in Catalan to his daughter Roma, the result of his marriage to publicist and presenter Risto Mejide, a decision that some users have criticized.
However, she always reaffirms herself: “I have always said that I am going to speak to my daughter in Catalan and no one can lower me from there. And it doesn’t matter if I live in Madrid, in New York… I don’t care, as if I move fifty thousand times.”
