Animal Action
In one scene, Richard and Arline are in a shop at the pier in Atlantic City and a dog is seen sitting beside a boy. In another scene, Richard is sitting on a park bench outside the hospital and a dog is seen walking over to him and Richard pets him. There is an earlier scene where Richard and his father are sitting on a park bench and a dog is seen in the background walking by. For the scenes where the dog walks from A to B, trainer #1 released the dog as trainer #2 off camera, used verbal commands to cue the dog to his next mark.. When the dog is seen sitting next to the boy, the trainer merely placed the dog on his mark and gave the dog a “stay” command. In another scene, Richard and Arline are standing on the pier and a man is seen giving a little girl a pony ride. The little girl was placed on the pony and the trainer merely lead the pony from A to B.
