2. Dog

The imaginatively namedDogis one you’ll definitely need tissues for. Based on a road trip star (and co-director) Channing Tatum took with his own terminally ill dog, Lulu.This movie differs from Tatum’s own experience, but both pooches are named Lulu, and it’s clear to see there’s a lot of love on show here. In this movie, Tatum plays a veteran tasked with taking his fallen friend’s former military dog to his funeral. To be honest, there won’t be a dry eye in the house. This is not a movie for children FYI.

3. Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey

Arguably the most famous dog movie since Lassie, this 1993 flick featured heavily in my childhood and, no doubt, countless others.
Any dog with Michael J Fox’s voice has my attention, but it’s the heartwarming story that has me hooked every time this movie comes on. Believing their owners have abandoned them, Chance (Fox), Shadow (Don Amiche) and Sassy (A feline Sally Field) set out on an epic trip across California to be reunited with their vacationing owners.

4. Frankenweenie

Trust Tim Burton to take something as wholesome as a boy and his dog and completely flip it on its head.Frankenweenieis gloriously spooky and sweet in equal measure.After bringing his beloved pooch, Sparky, back to life, Victor Frankenstein soon realises there’s something a little off about his faithful hound. There’s a lesson in here somewhere about grief and letting go, but I’m mostly on board for the beautiful aesthetic (the Halloween countdown starts now). Make no mistake, however, with 88% amongst critics on Rotten Tomatoes, this is a quality picture.

5. Togo

The story of the dogTimemagazine called “the most heroic animal of all time” Togo was a husky who lead a life like no other. The runt of his litter, he went on to become a hero and an Alaskan legend.
This movie, starring Willem Dafoe and his brilliantly expressive face, recounts Togo’s greatest accomplishment when as a senior hound of 12 years, he led the delivery of the Diptheria serum to some of the most dangerous parts of Alaska.
