No Cursing
Doris Day kept a “swear jar” at the studio where she recorded some of her songs. True to her image, she did not like vulgar language at all! She also did not want her songs to appear in movies that used swear words. Anyone who she caught speaking expletives had to give up a quarter and place it inside the swear jar. How much do you think they were able to collect during her long career?

Animals On Set
Doris Day is a huge animal lover, and she has always been one. She became committed to animal welfare ever since her childhood dog Tiny died in a tragic car accident. When she was shooting The Man Who Knew Too Much, she hated the way everyone else treated sheep, camels, and goats. Later, she told the crew she refuses to work until they changed their treatment of the animals. A sizable portion of her earnings was set aside for her animal welfare activism throughout the years.
