#32: “I’ll sic my dog on you!”

The ‘80s were an interesting time in the movie industry (hello again, Stephen King). This shot is from the 1983 film Cujo, where a dog becomes rabid and attacks everyone he can. It took five different dogs, one robot, and a guy in a dog costume to shoot the film. The dogs had so much fun; their tails had to be (gently) tied down so the wagging wouldn’t show up on the screen.

As for the scary-looking foam on Cujo’s mouth? That was egg whites and sugar. Apparently, the director complained about the dogs licking it off, but what did they expect? Pups love a good omega-3 sugary treat! Anyway, the tennis courts above are still fully functional. You can find them at 1008 G. Street, Petaluma, California.
