Netflix’s latest feel-good flick is bound to make the tears flow. Taking place on the beautiful Appalachian Trail, it’s no surprise audiences are curious to know where Dog Gone was filmed.
Loving father John Marshall (Rob Lowe) and his teenage son Feilding (Jonny Berchtold) team up after their family pet goes missing along the Appalachian Trail.
In desperate need of his life-saving medication, the Marshalls only have two weeks to find Gonker before the beloved dog will die.
The epic story of a father and son as they search for their missing dog Gonker is even more powerful due to its real-life inspiration.

The film is based on the book Dog Gone: A Lost Pet’s Extraordinary Journey And The Family Who Brought Him Home, written by Pauls Toutonghi.
Where was Dog Gone filmed?
All the filming for Dog Gone took place in the state of Georgia. Much like the characters in the film, the crew moved around the state to capture many pivotal scenes.
According to The Cinemaholic, production began in August 2021 and wrapped in January 2022.
The majority of shooting took place around Stone Mountain, Conyers, Riverdale, and Powder Springs.
A small part of the Netflix flick was lensed in Rabun County.
The Appalachian Trail
Several scenes were filmed on the actual Appalachian Trail, as this is where Gonker goes missing. The trail is a popular hiking spot in the eastern United States.
Surprisingly, the trail extends through 14 states.
It is almost 2,200 miles in length, stretching from Springer Mountain in Georgia to Mount Katahdin in Maine.
Undoubtedly, the trail makes for a beautiful backdrop to the gut-wrenching story.
