A reporter is doing a piece on Hank, the police dog at a K-9 Training Center, played by a German Shepherd named Kane. This dog is trained in Schutzhund, a German method of training. Aspects of the training include overcoming obstacles, agility trials and attacking a person wearing a padded sleeve. A stuntman wore the protective sleeve and a trainer doubled as the police officer that releases the dog. The dog runs after the stunt man, attacks his arm and gets a reward - the protective sleeve as a play toy. Later Hank is shown digging in some dirt, at a crime scene and pulling on a foot sticking out nearby. Bruce pets the dog and gives it a bone. A treat was buried in the dirt to encourage the dog to dig. The fake foot was made by the special effects department and was used as a toy right before filming began to help encourage the dog to pull on it. Later, if you stay until all of the credits have been shown, you will see Jim Carrey wearing the protective covering and playing with Hank. This was filmed during a break with the trainer standing just off camera.
