moving along with me and the rats---

i did many mice jobs due to the computer mouse concept....- and quite a few rat ones- one movie job involved"using" a rat.. but not on. film.

the movie had several names. "session. 9" was one of them.  annimal episodes  provided the pigeons at the mental hospital and then the dog.

The shot was taken on route 129 near union hospital where a man was supposed to get off a bus walk across the street to his house where his dog a Jack Russell greeted him hysterically---as only a Jack Russell can ...  How do  i make the dog be so excited at the arrival of a man he didn't know was my problem... so I stopped by Essex Aggie on the way and picked up 2 rats in my metal rat proof cage..  in. the car all the way down to the location the Jack Russell was well aware what was in that cage.. so that when I got to the shot, I tied the dog up to a somewhat typical 20 foot leash staked  to the ground.... and when that bus arrived and the man got off all I had to do was pick up the cage with the rats and t he jack russell went berserk... roll film....

.....  as required... I returned the rats , returned the jack russel and cashed the check.

 

While I am at it.... to bring it up to modern topic..... if Nancy Pelosi’ s husband had had a cute little pair of Jack Russell terriers he would not have gotten a fractured skull by a guy who broke in the back door ....he would have been wide awake dialing 911 the guy set foot within 6 foot of that back door..  I suppose if you want to perfect the security system... you would have two Jack Russells and one doberman pincer.. the Jack Russells would wake up the doberman  who in his confusion would rush wherever they told him to go..   I have quite a good combination here with one Jack Russell and three great Danes..  the great Danes are not as reliable and alert system if they're sound asleep which is why I need the Jack Russell because. JR"s  don't sleep through anything.

 There would be several combinations of dogs who would be 99% effective security for the entire House of Representatives... in a colder climate I would highly recommend 2 corgis and a German shepherd.... because they have the undercoat to cope with colder weather even if they are in the house..which they must be...

Now that I think of it to be totally stylish perhaps the doberman and two minpins would be a very attractive security system because the minpins  are basically miniature dobermans and they're cute and active and they bite too.... but mostly they would have a big friend to do the biting. 

 

We underestimate the value of dogs all the time....  no one is mentioning an 8 pound JR... but discussing the millions of $$ for men. who would not do what a few dogs are well adapted to accomplish. 

We could  rely on dogs for all sorts of things.

 

( well.... people have said... maybe this  house has been ransacked and we couldn’t’  notice)
