Juno - Great Dane trained by Barbara
Woodhouse who was seen THE AVENGERS
series, an espionage adventure produced in England in the early 1960s.
Juno debuted on the 1962 second season episode "Death of A Great Dane"
wherein Steed (Patrick Macnee) and Catherine "Cathy" Gale (Honor
Blackman) investigate the death of an auto crash victim who turns
out to have a
fortune of diamonds in his stomach.
The episode opens in a pet cemetery as a genial butler named
Gregory stands with a Great Dane by his side as the two attend the
funeral of the dog's deceased companion. Later, we learn that body
of a deceased wealthy man named Mr. Litoff is found in the grave.

The black and white episode was re-shot in color with Emma Peel
(Diana Rigg) and Steed as “The 50,000
Pound Breakfast.”
Reportedly (according to an Internet forum post) Juno was killed on the London Underground while on the way to
the studio.
