The 2017 family movie B次元官网网址淎 DogB次元官网网址檚 PurposeB次元官网网址� was marred by accusations of animal abuse after a video of a frightened dog that appeared to be forced into rushing water during the making of the film was posted by TMZ.

The footage quickly went viral but a third-party investigation discounted the allegations. On Thursday, those involved in the film reflected on the controversy at the premiere of the filmB次元官网网址檚 sequel, B次元官网网址淎 DogB次元官网网址檚 Journey.B次元官网网址�

American Humane has said its investigation showed no dogs were harmed but acknowledged the dog was in distress and production staff should have realized that earlier.

Dennis Quaid, the star of both movies, said: B次元官网网址淚 think we were really vindicated in that.B次元官网网址�

PETA maintained that an animal was terrorized during the movie in a statement to The Associated Press on Friday.
