When it's time to settle down to home movie nights with doggies sharing our hearths, hearts and popcorn, what film should we choose?
For some time now I have been compiling a list of exciting Cairn Terrier movies. Many of these pictures have won Oscars, Golden Globes
and BAFTAs as well as other notable awards, nominations, and statues.
Most of these Cairn movies are available for home usage.
A few are unavailable for any viewing as of this publication. If you know of any films featuring Cairn Terriers I missed, please
email me so I can watch them, verify the canine actors are Cairn Terriers and add them to the list. If they become available,
I will give more plot details.
When there is a star next to the title on the list, it is a film known to have starred Terry the Cairn a.k.a. Toto. I use both her names to refer to her throughout this list. Terry was featured in so many movies that even her owner Carl Spitz lost track. Some sources say she is known to have performed in 11 films. She is documented to have been in at least 17 films. I list her in 22 so far.
After Terry's fame grew, her name was officially changed to Toto. You can read all about
Terry in the autobiography “I TOTO” by Willard Carroll, a book you can purchase on this site's shopping page. "I Toto" provided
me with a partial list of the films starring Terry both currently available and those not yet available to view at home.
Some films on this list star Toto's pup Rommy, owned and trained by the famous Weatherwax family. The Weatherwaxes also worked with Terry/Toto and is best known for owning, breeding, and training all of the famous collies named Lassie from film and television. A few films list a Cairn Star, Danny, owned by the famous trainer Frank Inn, who worked with the Weatherwax family early in his career. He was later known known for Benji, training Mr. Ed and many other famous animal stars.
I want to send
a special thank you to all the Cairn fanciers, film historians and film fans who have helped me make this list as solid a resource
as it can be.
(The author lists television and movie material viewable in USA so that she can confirm the correct breed of dog.)
