Sometimes the only thing some people have are their dogs and that emotional connection that is built between them shouldn't be mocked because, again, you do not know what that animal means to a particular person. There's people who might say 'well, it's just a dog' and to those fucking dipshits I say that you do not know what that dog meant to me, so keep your fucking opinions to yourself. And it's a loss that I still feel to this day.

Anyway, I had to put him to sleep in 2013, when I was 25. Being there when I was sad and cheering me up without even trying to. What ten-year-old kid doesn't love his dog, right? He was always there and he never judged, not even once and I couldn't be more grateful to him for that. You could say that my dog was my best friend by default, but I don't really see it that way, because I fucking loved that dog. It doesn't really work if it's a one-way thing, sort of like I can't consider Elizabeth Olsen my girlfriend when she doesn't even know who I am, right? Same logic, in my mind, applies to best friends. Regardless, I've always felt that to be someone's best friend, they also have to consider you their best friend. This wasn't as a result of anything my friends did, of course, it was just how I felt. After that, I did find a group of friends (which I was part of to begin with), of course, that I was very close to, but I never could shake the feeling of being an outsider. I did have a best friend all the way up until the seventh or eighth grade, I believe, when the classes got mixed up. The private school I went to, I got there in the third grade and by then some of the students had been together since kindergarten, so friendships were already established.

I realize that that's a bit of a cliched thing to say, but it really was true in my case. To say that this dog was my best friend is quite an understatement. I got this dog when I was a ten-years-old, a few months after my tenth birthday actually. I guess I'll just start by saying that I had a dog.

A dogs purpose dog in water movie#
A Dog's Purpose, starring Britt Robertson, Dennis Quaid, and Josh Gad as the dog's voice, is out on January 27.So, yea, this is a movie that happened and that I watched. Now, this controversy surrounding the movie is upsetting us all over again - and it hasn't even hit theaters yet. The emotional trailer for the film alone had us bawl (and made some of us prone to crying about animals weary of even seeing it). "PETA is calling on dog lovers to boycott the film in order to send the message that dogs and other animals should be treated humanely, not as movie props," the group said in a statement reported by People.

The last few seconds of the video show a different incident, with the dog submerged in the pool struggling to swim across the current towards a handler.Īmblin Partners and Universal Pictures told TMZ in a statement, "Fostering a safe environment and ensuring the ethical treatment of our animal actors was of the utmost importance to those involved in making this film and we will look into the circumstances surrounding this video."īut animal rights activist organization PETA has already come out ardently against A Dog's Purpose. When the dog is finally forced into the water, the animal goes underwater immediately, somebody yells, "Cut it!" and several people hurry to the dog. "You just got to throw him in!" one of them says. Throughout the video - shot on the Winnipeg, Canada set of the drama in November 2015, reports TMZ - there are off-camera voices commenting on the unfolding situation. The handler keeps pushing the dog (one of the five used in filming) towards the edge of the water, while the dog struggles to stay on dry land using is paws. It is clear in the minute-long video that the dog is scared of going into the large pool, in which a quick current was created by eight motors churning the water. (Per TMZ, at least five different dogs were used to produce the movie, which is about a dog who reincarnates into different breeds with new owners.) TMZ first obtained the controversial clip, apparently filmed by a crew member, that shows a German Shepherd being forced into rapidly moving water. A disturbing behind-the-scenes video from the set of A Dog's Purpose has people questioning the treatment of the dog in the scene and calling for a boycott of the movie.
