Logan Paul accused of pushing dog off boat

WWE superstar and social media influencer Logan Paul found himself in the spotlight on Thursday as he defended against accusations of pushing his dog off a boat. The controversy reignited after a four-year-old video surfaced, showing Paul's Australian Shepherd, Broley, falling off the back of a moving boat. In the footage, two hands are seen behind the dog, prompting speculation about Paul's involvement in the incident. In response to the backlash, Paul took to Twitter, asserting, "I would NEVER," and shared a slowed-down version of the video to clarify the situation. He explained that the hands seen in the video were attempting to stabilize Broley, not push him off the boat. "We would NEVER, EVER, EVER push Broley off the boat," Paul reiterated, emphasizing that the dog jumped independently and that the hand was merely petting him at the time. Paul's defense included a detailed observation of Broley's body language, which he claimed indicated a self-induced jump. He expressed frustration with the accusations, stating, "Go f*** yourselves," after reviewing the footage in slow motion and confirming he had not touched the dog during the incident. This incident is not the first controversy for Paul, who has faced scrutiny throughout his career in both wrestling and social media. Recently, he lost his title as United States Champion at WWE's Summer Slam after a 273-day reign, adding to the challenges he faces in the public eye.
