A little known piece of dachshund movie trivia: the part of the pet dog of Dorothy  in the Wizard of Oz, was originally scripted for a miniature dachshund named Otto, shown here taking a walk with his actual owner, actress Margaret Hamilton (who played the Wicked Witch of the West in the movie).  Lingering post-war hostility toward the Germans, however, caused the studio to insist upon the substitution of a Norwich terrier to be called Toto, a dog of then-more-acceptable British descent.

In this rare still shot from unreleased footage, we see Dorothy singing "Somewhere Over The Rainbow," with Otto behind her. This scene had to be re-shot after the studio fired Otto, and the original footage has never been shown.
