Dogs are generally believed
to be color blind, but Hollywood
animal trainer Frank Barnes
swears Flame, who has the title
role in Columbia's Rusty Saves
A Life" almost ruined a scene lin
the film because of his SENSITIVE

Flame to steal soce ice cream

lack of interest in the confection

tachio, his owners favorite fla
vor. A quick change from brown
to green and the dog was tapping
away at the ice cream avidly
to satisfy any director.
