Surely there was a danger of the Cougar mauling Lassie to death?

De-clawed and trained cougar..I met several cougars at the training ranch, that were used in Disneys' movie Cougar Country..the ones used in wrestling scenes were de-clawed.
However, i have sold several of my dogs for cougar control, and they handle cougars without getting a scratch..so it can be done..

Animals used in movie or TV series have been de-clawed and their teeth are often filed down as to be relatively harmless. A five minute scene you see on TV often takes many hours to film and if the cougar did get too rough the scene was probably stopped and the film cut just to show the good stuff. There are often as many as 6 animal trainers on hand to protect all the animals.

... because it's fiction and the animal was trained (and to be fair if Lassie had been killed - how hard would it have been to have found another similar looking dog and trained it up to replace them... hey, hang on a minute maybe Lassie never did win the fight after all!).

Because in real life they were best friends!
One would think that the cat was tame and that its handler had trained it to perform the required moves for that scene. And as someone else quite rightly mentioned, it is very likly the cats claws would of been either removed, or blunted in some way

because it's tv & on shows like that the "good guy" always wins! In real life a dog would most likely end up torn apart....sad but true.
