CARLO *

Dog (1914)

Thanhouser Career Synopsis: Carlo, a collie, appeared in a Thanhouser film in 1914.

Biographical Notes: Carlo, a collie, appeared in the 1914 Thanhouser release of In Danger's Hour. An article in Reel Life, September 12, 1914, described the dog: "About the studios The Thanhouser Twins [Madeline and Marion Fairbanks] are seldom seen without their pet dog, Carlo, a magnificent collie. Carlo has great difficulty to know which of his little mistresses he adores more. They are equally gentle, equally fun-loving, and they both think the world of him. Sometimes the pretty twins will play a mischievous trick on their patient friend, who is evidently perplexed to understand how two little girls can yet appear to be one girl. He will sit blinking his eyes and looking from Marion to Madeline as though to say: Do I see double? Or which one of you was it who ran away with my stick?'"
