Dita's story-line as Cerberus mirrored her real life. She suffered from real-life combat stress, shooting the many action scenes of each episode, from multiple angles on
SEAL Team (2017). Dita was originally trained as a narcotics detection dog, and wasn't used to all of the gunfire and explosions. Dita and Cerberus both retired from the action scenes, but did not leave the show.
Pepper, a 2 1/2 year old Dutch Shepard, and Dita's sister who is also owned and trained by
Justin Melnick, has taken over team duties, as she was actually trained to be around explosives and gunfire.
