Though he was never contracted to be in the movie, our dog, Chewy, did his

Attack of the Cattle.
Occasionally, during the middle of a scene, a herd of cattle would find its way
into the shot. These weren't the high strung, running-of-the-bulls type. They were
really quite mellow animals, so we just had to do a little waiting and a little
encouraging and they would be on their way.

Here we forgot to wear the jacket, so we had to reshoot it.
This was simply a clerical error on the board.
Sometimes we would forget to mark the scene before we shot it, so we would
have to mark it after, with this design.
