Pancho, the Spanish TV dog
His name was actually Cook, but he became known as Pancho to the television audience. He became known through a commercial for the Spanish lottery company in which he stole his master’s lottery ticket and made a million profit. The spot also showed how the dog spent the money: it traveled all over the world! You could see him in a sun hat in a hammock in the Maldives and in a fur cap in Moscow.
Other famous TV dogs
But Pancho wasn’t the only TV dog that many still admire. In other countries, too, various four-legged actors have sneaked into the lives of many viewers.
Here some examples:
- Lassie. Who can not remember the beautiful female collie who made us all cry and laugh?
- Frank. This French Bulldog starred in the X-Men film series.
- Hachiko . The beautiful Alaskan Malamute made us cry until the end of his days with his boundless loyalty.
- Beethoven. In the film of the same name, the little Saint Bernard drew an honest laugh from all of us through his pranks with his young friends. A nice childhood memory.
- Rex. The imposing German shepherd was a police dog and amazed us with his intelligence in the series “Rex”.
- Marley. The amusing film with the leading actress Jennifer Aniston and the title “Marley and I” tells of a couple with a naughty dog.
Many television dogs have delighted us and made pleasant memories possible. We will never forget them, so today we wanted to show them our admiration.
