Fuzz is seen throughout the movie as Charley's companion. All animal action is mild. In one scene Fuzz eats a piece of poisoned meat that has been left for an unknown chicken thief and doesn't return home that day. Charley goes in search of Fuzz, and finds him, lying dead in the tall grass. In order to accomplish this scene Fuzz had been instructed by his owner/trainer to "play dead" and, of course, the meat was not actually poisoned. Other animals include farm animals and a fox used as background and a baby mouse that Charley holds in her hand and pets.
