Cotton balls? I read a review that said they had capped those dogs’ teeth for the movie. I wondered how they did that and wondered if the dogs minded. Was the Fred Astaire movie part of the Doberman trilogy, or was it made separaaately.

Sorry about your uncle but glad you got a dog for protection...

I seriously doubt that.

The ASPCA would’ve had a fit.

They *still* “pad” dogs’ lips for movies.

If done well, it looks real.
If not, it looks like “The Dogfather”....;D

The dogs learn to put up with it.
It’s not hurting them but I reckon the cotton tastes icky after a while.

Before the cotton trick, they used rubber bands to keep the dogs’ lips up.

That was cruel and the ASPCA outlawed it.

Yes, the Astaire movie was the final movie of the trilogy.

The entire trilogy is very hard to find unless you can live with a low-grade bootleg.

I think they sell 1 of the 3 movies on Amazon.

Thanks...that dog saved my life.
