Over one hundred 3 legged dogs from all around the world have applied to play the role of “Scrap” in Geoff Talbot’s up and coming movie “Lucky & Rich” a romance/tragedy shooting in Prague in February 2010.

A simple message was sent out in early May… “looking for a #3-legged dog to make into a movie star” And since that time tripods of all shapes and sizes have been putting there best three legs forward.

On his blog Geoff Talbot says “There is a wonderful thing about a three legged dog, they don’t spend their whole life looking for the leg that they lost. They just keep on hopping from person to person looking to make friends where-ever they go.”
To cast the champion tripod to play Scrap Talbot is planning to select 12 candidates to take part in a unique interactive online competition called “3-Legged Dog Idol” His technology partners in this innovative competition are Video platform providers en2go and Digital Stream.
