Who we’ve worked with

We’ve working with some of the biggest names in the industry, and some lesser know but very successful production companies

We hired 15 dogs from Sandra Strong Dogs on Camera. The shoot was studio based as well as on location. The dogs were very friendly and well trained. Sandra and her team of trainer/handlers were very efficient. Problems were quickly solved, and extra training was dealt with speedily.

One of the scenes involved a spaniel being soaked in water so we could capture it shaking in slow motion. We obviously could not do the wetting down in the studio. Sandra explained the dog would shake as soon as it was wet, so she volunteered to carry this dripping animal back to the studio so we could get the desired effect. This was definitely beyond the call of duty, but dog shaking effect was spectacular.

Sandra sent us pre shoot videos to keep us fully updated with each dogs progress, which allowed us to make changes as necessary! The shoot went so well on the final day we managed to wrap 2 hours early! Sandra and her team were easy to work with, and I would not hesitate to recommend her.

Sandra worked for us during the UK prep and shoot of the film and she was brilliant.

There was a scenario where a dog had to be trained to come and lick underneath Blake Harrisons skirt in a pub whilst he was playing pool…! Not only did the dog that was cast perform beautifully on the day (despite being in a large room full of crew and extras) but also at all the rehearsals previously.

Sandra also kindly put together audition tapes of other potential cast dogs performing the stunt, which were sent to the directors whilst they were shooting in Australia. She was professional throughout and always on the end of the phone to discuss various issues and changes that cropped up. She also took the very comical nature of the stunt seriously from the start and was generally a pleasure to work with.

I would really recommend her.
