When Haley drives through the storm with the dog sitting in the passenger seat, the entire stage is a water tank and consists of a town with wooden houses, gardens, a gas station, and a playground. This scene was set inside a stationery car against a blue screen. The trainer leaned down in the backseat to cue the dog to stay seated. Outside of the car there was wind, rain and debris (leaves) hitting the windows. The dog action, SFX and VFX were discussed in full before filming the scene. The dogs exposure to the SFX outside of the car was limited. All loose materials on set were removed prior to the wind machines being used. Strict safety controls were in place for crew and animals entering the water tank. A minimum of two divers were on set at all times. The dogs had all been fully trained to swim and training videos were made available prior to filming. The water was filtered throughout the day and was maintained at a temperature of 84 degrees F. There were predetermined dry safe areas allocated for the dogs use in the flooded area prior to each part.
