Pirates of the Caribbean Dog
Twister the Pirate Dog
If you have ever been on the ride at Disneyland for which the film is named, surely you will remember the dog sitting outside the jail cell with the key ring in its mouth. The men inside the cell are trying to coax the dog to come closer so they might get the keys away from it. That is what you see on screen. Later, we see Jack Sparrow trying to coax the dog to come closer by sticking a bone out of his jail cell. The dog approaches his cell but then continues to run right by him. A Terrier Mix dog named, Twister, played this part. A trainer put the dog on its mark and cued it to stay and then to finally run to another trainer waiting off camera with a treat.
Twister, a terrier mix, was adopted from the Castaic Animal Shelter in 1995 by trainer Boone Narr from Boone’s Animals for Hollywood. Twister has appeared in the film Paulie and commercials for Western Union, Southwest Airlines, and Shell.
