When Yellow and Angus are ashore they play and forage for food, digging for clams on the beach. In reality, rather than digging for clams, the dog-actor was digging for doggie snacks buried under the sand.
Yellow accompanies Angus while the boy delivers newspapers. At one of the homes they encounter a very aggressive Rottweiler on a chain. The dog starts barking and growling at Angus. Yellow attempts to defend Angus and is about to do battle with the Rottweiler when Angus distracts the Rottweiler by throwing a newspaper on the lawn, which the Rottweiler goes after. To get the normally mellow Rottweiler-actor in the mood for the scene, the trainer jumped around and waved at the dog until the dog responded to the bizarre antics of his trainer.
Yellow was played mostly by Dakotah, an immensely appealing Yellow Lab. Dakotah's performance is enhanced by four additional Labs, Schroeder, Auggie, Foster and Linus, each with their particular talent, plus an animatronic dog, all of whom portray Yellow Dog at some time during the film.
Yellow accompanies Angus when he is playing in the woods. Yellow spots a pheasant and runs toward the bird. Just as Yellow gets close, the bird flies up out of harms way. This scene was shot in cuts. A trainer released the pheasant, which flapped it's wings and flew up. The dog never got very close to the pheasant, but as a safeguard, there were several people strategically placed out of camera range to rescue the pheasant, should there be a need.
