A VET WAS abandoned in the countryside in an effort to raise awareness about dumped dogs.
Olivia Kennedy from Northern Irish rescue dog organisation Lucy’s Trust filmed her journey, mimicking what she believes happens when an animal is dumped by their owner.
She was brought to an unknown location and abandoned, then wandered for a day in an effort to find her ‘owner’.
“We aim to try and highlight what it is really like to find yourself totally alone. not knowing where you are, or when you will eat again, or even where you can take refuge if the weather turns bad,” she said on Facebook.
She didn’t know when she would be picked up during her journey.
In a video, Olivia explained more:
The reason is there are so many dogs that are dumped year on year, day on day, week on week, across the UK and Ireland, and across the world and nobody really thinks about what goes on in their wee heads, what do they experience when they realise my owner’s gone and I’m here. There are no reasons to dump a dog.
“If we can make one person think twice before taking that lead off and driving way, then we’ve done our job,” she added.
She carried a Go Pro camera, and avoided people and cars, like a stray dog would. “I’m going to live the life of a stray dog for as long as [the cameraman] chooses” she says.
But at the end of the day, she said she knew she would be going home, unlike thousands of stray dogs.
The videos can all be watched here.

I wouldnt even bother watching it if it was released early. Unless you like watching things in 360p with time stamps and watermarks all over the shop.
@Euron snatch a bitch: Yeah, I wait until the day after it’s aired to download it!
@meatyslaps: exactly.
@Euron snatch a bitch: I’d watch an early release simply because there is always some langer that would drop a spoiler, but I’d still watch it again when a decent official airing is available
@Euron snatch a bitch: well there not R5 promotional copies is the watermarks you speak of wouldn’t be there. They are coming directly from HBO. I for one would be watching. Loyal to HBO my arse
@Euron snatch a bitch: Well they are obviously not R5 promotional copies so they wouldn’t have watermark or be reduced in quality as they are coming directly from HBO. Loyalty to HBO I for one am not
@Ger Murphy:
It doesnt say it has full episodes of Game of Thrones only scripts. Full series could be some other stuff. I wouldnt waste my time looking at scripts
@Stephen Coveney: True. I was talking about other series. I just ment the copy of thrones like episode 4 released from star India was obviously a promotional copy
Send the kjng of the north after them!!!
@THE BIG LAD: in the North, dammit people!
@THE BIG LAD: Love it lol. John snow will tame their ass
@THE BIG LAD: I’ll get right on it
Little Fingers is behind it.
First world problems!
@Mary Lyons: you’re using that wrong..
@Mary Lyons: We are in the first world.
@Mary Lyons:
Whether it’s in the First or the Third world, it’s still wrong
@Neal Ireland Hello.: no were not neal. The term is coined from the cold war. 1st world is countries aligned with the usa. 2nd world is countries aligned with the ussr and third world which didnt aligned with either
@Michael Collins: did we not align to the US when we allowed refuelling in Shannon. Did we not align to the UK when we took their money throughout the years of austerity?
@Tweety McTweeter: but who cares?. Seems like you do!
@Colin Reilly: why?
@Barry O’Brien: no Barry we let anyone refuel here , it’s just the Iraqis, or Afghans never asked could they.
who gives a bollix? It’s a story about hbo ffs
Who’s not going to watch it again on hd TVs anyway even if they watched a leaked episode online. HBO have nothing to fear here.
@SteveW: whose going to watch a tv show twice in a matter of days or weeks.
Hbo have a lot to fear
@Michael Hayden: I dunno, I watched the leaked episode online on Sat, then watched it again on Monday when it actually aired cos the quality was shite.
@Dan Morgan: I watched it twice too for that reason.
@Dan Morgan: I just watched it twice because why not like
I would love to be in position to open account at HBO or any other production online and pay let’s say 0.5 euro per each episode I watch … in online stream or for download.
with lower resolution …. so who want to watch this way.. ok…
and who wants to watch in high resolution with their paid network TV … that’s ok too .
Watched the latest episode on Saturday, decent copy, have to say the producers/directors have done a fantastic job in building up to the climax, really gripping stuff, they’ve done great justice to the final season.
As unconventional as it may sound I think torrent sites should get behind HBO and ban any pre air torrents
@ED: yeah because torrent sites have such a strong moral compass
I didn’t want to watch it anyway
@Paul Friday Shannon: I think most that like the show will ignore the hackers postings. Hope HBO give these lads the 2 fingers
I’m loving 2017
Pfft let it leak, be shite quality
Only thing is those stupid fecking Clickbait Sites and YouTube Channels will watch and give away spoilers in headlines or on Thumbnails of videos. Apparently that happened on the weekend with spoilers in title of some YouTube channels appearing in the Suggested Videos if you’d watched a GoT video previously
have your say
