Behind the Scenes[]
The actual name of the dog who played Fido was 'Dash'; 'Little Dog Fido' was only his stage name. Dash was very territorial about "his" beach, and would chase away any other dog who wandered onto the set. The crew was also prohibited from eating on the set because Dash would stop what he was doing and search for food:
"Little Dog Fido" was a stage name; his real name is Dash. As in the program[me] Little Dog Fido was prone to do unexpected things. The crew was banned from eating on the set because Little Dog Fido would stop whatever he was doing and go to explore any possible source of food. He also became very territorial about "his" beach and would chase away any other dog who dared to venture onto the set.
Filming with a dog added time to the shoot, but when performing with one as cute as that we knew we stood no chance - we were upstaged every time.
Dash was provided by Midlands-based society A1 Animals.
