Cop Land (1997)
Copland is a film about a group of NYPD officers who settle in and run a town called Garrison, New Jersey. When one of the group kills a couple of black youths on a bridge over the Hudson River, an investigation by the local constable and internal-affairs is launched. In the process some unsettling evidence is dug up which points to the fact that the town and its residents are anything but clean.
Animal actors in this production were monitored through American Humane Society’s No Animals Were Harmed™ program.

Detailed Animal Action Report
There are several scenes where a poodle is held by an actor or is sitting on a bed. Another dog is seen barking and running from point A to B in front of a gate as the sheriff walks by. For these scenes, the trainer placed the dog with the actor, or on his mark, and cued him with verbal and hand signals. In another scene, the sheriff is driving down the road when a deer darts out from the woods and stands in the road. The trainer placed the deer on his mark for the establishing shot. The vehicle is not actually seen hitting the animal.
