CEO put on probation after video of him kicking a dog goes viral

Des Hague is the CEO of food and drink company Centerplate.

This video may upset some readers

Global News / YouTube

THE CEO OF an American food and drink company has been placed on “indefinite probation” after a video of him apparently abusing a dog went viral.

Des Hague, CEO of Centerplate – a US company which serves food at entertainment venues and employs 30,000 people – issued an apology today after the video caused outrage online.

In the video, reportedly captured at a condo building in downtown Vancouver, a man identified as Des Hague by Global TV in Canada, is seen kicking the dog and pulling the dog off the ground by the lead.

The British Columbia Society for Protection of Cruelty to Animals says that they are recommending a prosecution in the case. They say that the Doberman is ok.

NBC San Diego quotes a Centerplate statement as finding Hague’s behaviour “unacceptable”.

“We do not condone nor can we overlook the mistreatment of animals and Mr. Hague’s personal misconduct.”

Through his legal counsel, Hague issued an apology to Global News.

I take full responsibility for my actions, this incident is completely and utterly out of character and I am ashamed and deeply embarrassed. Under the circumstances of the evening in question, a minor frustration with a friend’s pet caused me to lose control of my emotional response.Unfortunately, I acted inappropriately, and I am deeply sorry for that and am very grateful that no harm was caused to the animal. I have reached out to the SPCA and have personally apologized to the dog’s owner.

At this time, I would like to extend my apology to my family, company and clients, as I understand that this has also reflected negatively on them.

    Glen contributes, an that’s better than just red thumbing people.
    You don’t have to agree, but you can have a constructive debate!
    Glen I’m glad the journal has loyal commenters like you, it wouldn’t be any fun if everybody agreed all the time!
    Why is it a problem if someone comments on every story?

    The problem with glen is he makes silly untrue statements with the sole purpose of causing an argument.

    Like saying this incident somehow invaded the right to privacy. This was a lift in a public building. There is no right to privacy in public. But he knew that.

    Yesterday when people were rightly annoyed that a wee girl was given an uzi, up pops glen to have a go at people for trying to change the American constitution! He ignored the issue at hand and invented a reason to start a row. People red thumb him because he is an obvious troll.

    Do people choose to reply and engage Glen? Yes!
    If they don’t want to go off topic they can ignore the comment, but Glen strikes me as someone that enjoys challenging peoples views and having his own views challenged?
    If you post on here your putting your view out there to be challenged.
    Comment sections are boring if everybody massages everybody else’s ego.
    Sometimes a comment section in an article only takes off if something controversial is said and that attracts more views and gets more comments going.
    Glen has made many good contributions.

    Glen to answer your question (once again) I’ll try not take up everyone’s time (as you usually do with each comments section)

    If you don’t know what’s worse, the dog being beaten or being watched on CCTV then you have a genuine problem.
    Most if not all people here have understood this from your ignorant first comment. Perhaps you should go read it again..

    In regards to my second statement about you getting up in arms about defending “minorities” here is the link to the story..

    This is the story where you reached record red thumbs by the way. You will know this before I attach the link.

    http://www.thejournal.ie/garda-knocked-down-waterford-1632590-Aug2014/

    Again your attention seeking is very prevalent from early on in this comment section but If you scroll half way down you can be seen once again embroiling yourself in another ridiculous statement & people confront you on it.. & once again you look idiotic to say the least..

    (glen later attempted to retreat to a Gaza related article that day & decided to take his frustrations out there, with some choice words which also gained him many more red thumbs)

    Two things are happening here, it’s Glen x3 or his mates (however I’d find it hard that he has the latter)

    ..I’ve also noticed you’ve changed your needy ways Glen, first you just commented like an 8 year old, now you purposely comment to wind people up, constantly against the grain with most articles every hour..

    Be nice to everybody because you don’t know what they are dealing with.
    Many people will comment in comment sections if their day to day life doesn’t have adult/stimulating/intellectual interactions.
    Maybe having these debates helps fill a gap? Maybe people enjoy any kind of interaction with others.
    Once one person labels you as “a troll” others jump on the bandwagon, and then the person gets stressed upset, makes a stupid comment and the situation worsens.
    Not everyone who posts may be of full mental health and maybe every red thumb forces them more and more to go within themselves and reject society and their views.
    Give everyone a chance to express themselves.

    Who are you to vilify me? Do you see yourself as a moderator on here. I don’t appreciate your sweeping comment at my expense. Just because your user name has “justice” in it, it does not mean that you are the voice of reason for everyone to believe.
    I have stood up for Glen, because I believe that everyone has the right to voice their opinion. I don’t think that everything Glen says is great, but that’s his choice. If people do not like what he says, ignore him. But people do reply, which I guess is what he wants, so don’t blame Glen, blame the weak sheep who respond to his comments, yourself included.

    I’m after reading all these comments shaking my head.
    I just won’t to point out that some of you are accusing me of breaking journal comments policy. If that was the case surely the journal would of deleted my account.
    I do not troll that’s first off… I make comments on here that a group of the same people don’t like. I make comments that aren’t the ” normal ” everyday view held by people but they are my views. I know that some of you support my views. I know that some of you would like to run me over lol
    Listen up …… You are under no obligation to read my comments or engage with me. So if you don’t like my comments I ask that you skip over them so this arguing can stop as I’m sure we are all fed up with it at this stage. With that said if you continue to engage with me using hostility then you are the one with the problem.

    Glen I’m dog wide to you.

    After a good aul trashing for your childish ways you come back all high & mighty with your moral comments of what’s right & wrong.

    Sadly Later you can always be seen contradicting this statement by arguing with other again, your nothing but a hypocrite!

    You forget the first time I encountered you, you abused me for comments I never made in previous articles. I couldn’t have commented because I was gone for a year. You were obsessed I was associated with an unhealthy organisation & you weren’t afraid to insist you were right much to my denial. I asked for proof & you couldn’t provide it..

    ..so don’t give me the bullying line, your probably the biggest one here. I’m gonna be here everyday that you troll, I hate that term but it’s just what you do. I’ll ignore your comments, your entitled to these & wouldn’t dare try stop you leaving one, but when I see you being objectively argumentative I’ll be happy to join in.

    You go against the grain all the time & distract most commenters to the extent that they feel the need to tend to your antics..
    For me this takes the goodness away from the comments section as I have to slog through your feverish needy comments tiger to the meaningful ones. I know every time i get on your case you back down or vanish for a few hours. That satisfies me no matter what people think ;-)
