Sly will be featured in a
new book titled Men
& Dogs: A Personal History From Bogart to Bowie
by Judith Watt and Peter Dyer. The book features photos
and anecdotes from 80 of the world's "most famous
and fascinating men" from all walks of life, past and present
are included. Sylvester Stallone, George Armstrong Custer,
Muhammad Ali, Clint Eastwood, Clark Gable,
Gregory Peck, Bob Hope, Ian Fleming, Truman
Capote, and Paul McCartney are just a some of the men
included.
Here's some of Sly's entry:
- Sylvester Stallone, cuddling with his briard (1994):
A nearly broke Stallone was on the verge of giving away his
longtime friend Butkus, a bull mastiff, when he sold
the script for "Rocky." Butkus not only got to
stay, Sly even cast him in the movie. The actor continues
to keep dogs, as does his mother, who claims that dogs "have
clairvoyant powers. They predicted George W. Bush's election
victories in 2000 and 2004."
