Gerard Butler adopted a dog he named Shushka while filming in Bulgaria in November 2017. “She was a stray while I was filming up a mountain in Bulgaria. Stole my heart,” Butler added. “Shushka” is what an assistant director said when calling the stray over. Butler liked the sound of it, so he named her “Shushka.” He eventually found out “Shushka” is not actually a name but a casual Bulgarian expression similar to saying, “Hey there.” 💙
