When asked about his favorite part about being in Clifford The Big Red Dog, Izaac stated that “It would have to be traveling to New York, and working in New York because those are two firsts for me. I have never worked in New York and I have never been to New York . To experience both at the same time and also experience staying in New York for three months was pretty cool. I got to see a bunch of things I have never seen before. I got to see the Statue of Liberty, I got to see Central Park, I got to eat 1 dollar Pizza, and I got to work in New York! It was a really fun experience and was definitely my favorite part. When asked what the hardest thing about acting with a giant red dog was.  He said “It would have to be nothing because the dog was actually a puppet! And the puppeteers who were controlling the puppet did an amazing job at making the puppet seem like a real dog.”
