“#These Are the Best Dog Movies of All Time”
Many pet owners wonder what their furry friend is capable of thinking and feeling, so Disney and other studios have stepped up to give us a look at these pets solving issues, some real-life and others more fictitious. Some of these classics feature animated pets with human-like voices and personalities to give us a look at what a dog’s life might look like, while others tell the story through the human lens and rely more on the talent of actors/actresses to tell the story. Whether animated or live-action, old or new, these dog movies embody sad, funny, angry, and bittersweet scenes that many of us relate to.
