The 28 puppets were 25 dogs and 3 fleas.
The body puppets needed dancers to control its movements.
The puppets needed electronic puppeteers and voice actors.
The puppet mechanisms were made by Inventiva Bonecos e Cenários, Ltda. who visited Los Angeles studios searching special effects technology. The animations were radio-controlled, making more realism.
The sets were created by Lia Renha, Maria Odile, Kátia Florêncio and Fernando Schmidt, and had different dimensions variating since miniature to the big ones.
All props were built specially for TV Colosso.
