“Everyone who worked on the video did so for free and has a connection to Roscommon (some ties stronger than others). The video was out of respect to the dedication of the Roscommon team. I think that dedication is captured in the video.”

“The Dog Action Welfare Group, which highlighted Thor’s plight, said he has a long journey ahead of him. “Sometimes in rescue, it seems like we are beyond shocking, our hearts are so fragmented as we witness more and more neglect, abuse, and indifference,” spokesperson Margaret Twohig said.
“But irrespective of how many broken and battered dogs come to us to make their lives whole again we are never failed to be touched at how they react to human kindness — they bear no grudges.”
