As A kid I too loved Old Yeller but I think as a kid my favorite dog movie was Disney's Big Red that came out in 1962 and featured a beautiful Irish setter. I think I saw that movie a zillion times as a child! Drove my mom crazy as then I was Irish setter crazy!
Hotel for Dogs - foster kids wind up creating a place for homeless dogs. If only art were imitating life in this case. Special features worth viewing to see how 20 dogs with 20 handlers do it.
Homeward Bound, Air Bud also come to mind as fun viewing.
At the other end of the spectrum is this powerful but graphic 5 minute video about chained dogs.
Don't even get me started on "humans"....
I love "Best in Show." Yes, the dogs are the supporting characters of their human caregivers but I love the satire. It's one of my favorite comedies and always has me laughing out loud.
Other dogs that I have loved that are featured in films but are not necessarily the main characters are the dogs in "The Lost Boys" (the character of "Nanook" is a personal favorite.)
There is, of course, "White Fang" and "The Call of the Wild" but I actually preferred the books to the movies.
This is a book, not a movie, but it is a very special book. I used to read it a lot when I was teaching preschool--but you don't read it--there are no words, it is all beautiful drawings.
I liked Beverly Hills Chihuahua and hope to see Dog Hotel or whatever it was called in the next few weeks. I broke down and saw BHC in the theaters twice, which I never do. I try very hard to not support movies with dogs - espeically pure breed dogs - in the leading roll as it just makes the BYBs business thrive, thus creating even more havoc for the over population problem. But it was really cute.....
I loved that movie I own it and can't watch it enough How cute those pups are
