Filming the film was not only difficult, but also dangerous.
A policeman and his four-legged companion are a classic detective pairing. The Dog series used a similar formula and was loved by fans of projects such as The Return of Mukhtar and Commissioner Rex. Millions of viewers are watching with interest the story of Max Maximov and his tailed friend.
The leading actor Nikita Panfilov admits that it was sometimes difficult to find contact with the animal. The actor’s first colleague on the set was the dog Count. The dog worked on the series for two seasons, but the animal left behind a “lasting impression.” The Count turned out to be not a cute puppy at all.
In total, the pet bit 15 members of the film crew.
Panfilov also got it from his colleague. One day, the enraged Count grabbed the artist by the soft spot. However, the star does not hold a grudge against the dog. According to Nikita Panfilov, then he simply lacked experience in communicating with a German shepherd.
