I know this is an extreme shot in the dark but I thought I'd ask it anyway.
Does anyone know what is the exact breed/make up of Doc's dog in Back to the Future from 1955? It is a terrier I know that, but I was wondering if anyone knew the exact breed. The dog is shown when Marty finds Doc in 1955 at his house. Doc opens the door, closes the door, tells Marty to come in and then pats this dog on the head and scoots him out on the behind.
I ask because my sister adopted the exact same breed of dog from a shelter after Hurricane Katrina. We just assumed that he was a Norfolk terrier mutt, but after watching Back to the Future last night I saw the dog and realized that there is a good chance its a specific mixture since the dog from the movie is an exact match.
Its different from the Norfolk since it has wiry fur and a long body. Much like a dachshund. Its tail is also erect with floppy ears and weighs roughly 13-18 pounds.
Again, I thought I'd take a shot in the dark hoping maybe some movie buff would know.
