Just hours away from being euthanized, a two-year-old mutt in Houston got her big break when an animal trainer recognized her star quality. Sunny, a terrier mix, was quickly adopted and flown to New York City to try out for the role of "Sandy" in the new Broadway production of Annie. "Something about her picture appealed to me," William Berloni, the animal trainer in charge of casting the role told ABC News. "We already had three other candidates, but when I met Sunny I thought she'd be a great fit. She's outgoing, friendly and eager to learn." Sunny got the role, in part because she looks so similar to the original Sandy, who was also chosen by Berloni. "It's something about the sad eyes," Berloni said. "They just get you. It was definitely typecasting." More-> gma.yahoo.com/dog-saved-euthanization-role-broadway-175513048--abc-news-topstories.html

If I'm not mistaken, Benji was rescued from the pound too.

"Eddie" aka Moose, the smart as a whip Jack Russel Terrier from the TV show Frasier, was given away when he was only 2 1/2 years old by his original owners because he was 'too hard to handle and train.' The lucky ones get a second chance - sure wish they all could.
