    Thanks swanq, we'll update the catalog record. If anyone knows the name of the dog we'll be glad to add it to. Some quick searches seemed to indicate that Dempsey owned lots of dogs during his life.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estelle_Taylor indicates that Dempsey's wife Estelle owned a bull terrier (citing news.google.com/newspapers?nid=2293&dat=19260221&... ) when she first went to Hollywood (~1920). In her later life she was an activist for pet welfare.

    is a studio photo from 1925 of a woman identified as Estelle Taylor with one of the French fake dogs with articulated jaw as seen in nearby photo in the Bain Stream.

    The description on Getty Images indicates that Estelle Taylor brought a Great Dane back from the trip to Europe. The dog she is holding certainly looks like a puppy, but I couldn't tell if it could be a Great Dane.
