The dog-thing sequence was shot in North Hollywood, CA over a two day period. In an interview with SWSCA, Anderson recalled the experience, "I had my arm up in the dog-thing and operated the mouth all the twisting and everything." Anderson would also operate the little 'chicken leg' sticking out the front of the dog with his other hand. And what about that ever-present 'Thing slime' seen throughout the film? To quote Lance, "there was slime constantly running down my back and down my neck." For shots where tentacles slither out from the dog-thing's body, reverse photography was used, which meant Anderson had to puppeteer in reverse, pulling tentacles into the puppet, instead of pushing them out. In addition to the slime and the challenges of reverse puppeteering, Lance was required to wear a leather helmet to protect his head from the explosive squibs the effects department was setting off on the dog-thing above him, which made shooting the sequence almost as scary as the scene itself.
