Awww that's adorable

I did a little bit of digging and unfortunately none of the dogs in the movies are actually his although he apparently enjoys playing with them in between shoots. So that was just something I heard somewhere that wasn't true.

However, as a consolation prize I would definitely recommend looking up the story of Stallone and his dog with the first Rocky movie. It's not a happy story, although it does eventually get a happy ending.

The short version is that Stallone became so poor while trying to get Rocky made that he ended up having to sell his dog for $50 to afford food. When the movie was eventually a success he went back to the person to try and buy his dog back who now insisted on wanting thousands of dollars in exchange for the dog, which Stallone eventually paid.
