"It painted a somewhat different picture from what we saw on that TMZ video," he said, adding the video cut footage from two time periods together. Polone said he watched all of the video the studio had from all of their different cameras, as well as video from dog trainers. So when the video was released, he says he went to find out what actually went on that day. He said he was on the film set for about 70 per cent of the 11-week production and didn't see any animals in discomfort or danger. "If you care about animals you obviously care about their feelings, and that dog clearly was distressed about what the trainer was doing and I was upset as well."Ī column by Polone for the Hollywood Reporter published on Monday explained that he was appalled by the video, particularly because he is a vegan with a love for animals. I don't want to see any dog in any kind of distress, including my own dog when I have to wash her," Polone said. The dog is seen resisting entering the water and clawing at the edges of the pool. 18, a video purportedly from the Winnipeg set was released by TMZ, and appeared to show a film crew forcing a dog into turbulent water in a pool. The movie, which stars Dennis Quaid and follows the lives of a repeatedly reincarnated dog named Bailey, was shot throughout Manitoba from August to October 2015. Animal rights group complaint alleges 'blatant animal cruelty' on A Dog's Purpose film set.

"This movie was set to be very successful, and I still hope that it will be, but if it doesn't I think other film studios will be questioning why this happened," Polone said on CBC Radio's Up To Speed on Tuesday. Gavin Polone, the movie's producer, said while he enjoyed shooting A Dog's Purpose in Winnipeg and would return, other film studios might be more hesitant.

The Hollywood premiere and some Canadian screenings of the movie have been cancelled after the release of a video which appears to show a German shepherd being forced into turbulent water. The controversy around a Manitoba-shot movie could have fallout for the province's film industry, the producer of A Dog's Purpose says.
