The Puppies in 101 Dalmatians It may be called 101 Dalmatians, but there were actually 230 Dalmatian puppies and 20 adult Dalmatians on set of this 1996 Disney film. The trainers used various treats and voice commands to get the dogs to act a certain way, and they rubbed steak juice and raw hot dogs on the actors to get the dogs to lick their skins in all those loving scenes (*shudder*).
