If you said Toto, you’re right!

Famous Dogs

Toto was a female Cairn Terrier whose name was actually Terry until it was officially changed to Toto (due to the movie’s popularity) in 1942. Although Terry performed in several feature films alongside mega stars like Shirley Temple and Spencer Tracy, her only credited role was in The Wizard of Oz as Toto.

Fun Fact: Toto was paid $125 a week for her role as Toto – more than most human actors in the movie were paid!

Now, can you guess who this famous movie dog is?

This next famous movie pup’s long career started with a feature film in 1943 and continued with 8 more films, a television series, and a radio show where she always managed to save the day (or to save Timmy from the well!)

    My favorite famous doggy was Toto. My 9 year old Yorkie Pomeranian named Puppy looks just like Toto.
