Terry, the Cairn Terrier |
Terry's career stretched from 1936 to 1942. She participated in fifteen different movies and gave the breed a boost in popularity.
Allegedly, the role as Toto made everyone call her by that name, so her owner changed her name to Toto. She was a great success and went through excessive training - if you look at the 1939 The Wizard of Oz, Toto is in almost every scene. She was paid $125 per week. Not bad for a dog at that time!
