Disturbing Footage On Set Of "A Dog's Purpose"

TMZ reports One of the dogs in the upcoming film “A Dog’s Purpose” desperately resisted shooting a risky scene, but chilling footage shows filmmakers apparently forcing the animal into rushing water.

This is the movie they are talking about to refresh your memory.

Social media has erupted in protest, and boycott.

The director has taken to twitter to respond.

I am very disturbed by the video released today from the set of my film A dog's purpose.

I did not witness these actions.
We were all committed to providing a loving and safe environment for all the animals in the film.
