Encyclopedia : S : SO : SOC : Soccer (dog actor)
Soccer (May 17, 1988 - June 26, 2001), was a dog actor, the veteran of many television commercials. He became famous portraying Wishbone in the TV series of the same name. Soccer was a well-trained Jack Russell Terrier.
The series used stunt doubles Bear for swimming and Phoebe for diving, because Soccer hated to swim. There was also a body double, Shiner.
Soccer lived with his trainer, Jackie Kaptan, on the ranch in Plano, Texas, where the Wishbone series was filmed.
