It’s seeing their furry cuteness on the big screen. These movies that depict dogs’ amazing qualities and their connection with humans are sure to make you laugh, cry and tug all your heartstrings. Here are the top five best movies that will guarantee your viewing pleasure. 1. **Old Yeller (1957)** Although released in 1957, this movie is sure to tug at your heart with the powerful depiction of a loving relationship between a young boy and a stray dog. The movie displays the fierce loyalty of a dog and would have you kissing your little pooch at the end. 1. **101 Dalmatians (1961)** Again, Disney doesn’t disappoint with this memorable story in 101 Dalmatians. The movie centers on Roger Radcliffe–A computer game genius and his dog, Pongo. Pongo, tired of the single life, goes to find a mate for both of them. Finding a match in the Dalmatian, Perdita and her owner, Anita, he stages an encounter. Soon, Pongo and Perdita have a litter of babies–101 puppies. This catches the attention of Cruella De Ville, who wants to use their fur to make a coat for herself. Enjoying this read? You'll love our puppies.

If you are a dog lover, this movie is guaranteed to keep you on the edge of your seat, laughing out loud. 1. **Lady And The Tramp (1955)** This iconic animated romance by Disney defined the childhood of many; and for good reason. It tells the story of two individuals–the Lady, (a classic spaniel breed) and the Tramp (a street dog)–from opposite ends of the world. The lady adores her family but starts feeling left out when her dog-parents decide to have a child. Soon after, she meets the Tramp who introduces her to the ways of the street. It’s a fun movie that takes us through their many perils, funny moments, and of course, Hollywood’s famous date scene–the spaghetti and meatballs trick. 1. **Marley And Me (2008)** This movie will make you fall in love with your fur baby even more deeply. It will also make you appreciate how much your dog makes life bearable when it throws you lemons. Still reading? Our puppies are waiting.

The movie is filled with hilarious scenes and tear-provoking moments, so you do need to get ready to wipe some. 1. **The Secret Lives Of Pets (2016)** If you’ve ever wondered what your dog does when you leave the house, this movie had the same thought and ran with it. It’s a movie that talks about a terrier, Max, who is living the best life with his owner. When she adopts another dog, Duke, Max wants him far away from his perfect life.

This Petland was super clean and well taken care of! It wasn’t too busy so we were able to see a dog. The workers there were super attentive and kept checking in on us and helped us pick the right puppy to see. They had a few hamsters, ferrets, and Guinea pigs. This location does not have reptiles or fish. I highly recommend coming here for all your dog needs! Posted on Google Andrea Johnson Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This review is for Destiny M. She is next level fantastic. Her demeanor, patience, knowledge was unbelievable. Their prices for dogs seem high, but do your research and you will find them to be competitive. Destiny makes the entire experience worth it. Loved her! Posted on Google Earl Saverson,Jr Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
