If you've listened to HD 98.3, or checked out my page at any point... you know how much I LOVE dogs.  I have two of my own - a Labrador Retriever named Cody and a Pittie Mix named Harley.  Those two are my babies.  Life wouldn't be the same without them.  And I always say if I win the lottery (which I'd have to actually play...), I would buy a big piece of land, have a house and a huge fenced-in area... and adopt or rescue every dog I could. There's just so much to love about dogs.

For example, this morning, I was trying to do my yoga and meditation... only to be interrupted by my Harley girl.  She came up to me and tried to give me kisses.  Then she proceeded to paw at me to get my attention.  I finally gave in and lay there snuggling with her for a few minutes.  Looking at her, I'm like, nothing on Earth will love you like this.  Their love is unconditional.  She can get in trouble one minute, and the next she's back to giving me that "smile" and wagging her tail. Even on our worst days, dogs make it better!  There's nothing like coming home after a rough day to see those wiggle butts!

So, because of my huge love of dogs... I figured I'd share my favorite dog movies with you! Now, I will warn you... I think I've cried at every single one of these. And if you've seen them, you probably know why! I will say, I saw "Marley & Me" before I had a dog of my own.  And that was probably a really good thing.  I bawled like a baby, but it would've been way worse if I'd been a dog mama. Also, there are a TON of dog movies out there... some of which I've never seen or even heard of!

Without further ado... here are my top 6 favorite dog movies:

A Dog's Journey

Bailey, Bailey, Bailey! We lovingly call my Lab "Boss Dog" all the time.

A Dog's Purpose

A Dog's Way Home

Hachi: A Dog's Tale

Marley & Me

Homeward Bound

Honorable Mentions!

Of course, there are a TON of great dog movies.  Some I haven't even seen!  But others that I liked:

Must Love Dogs

Lady and the Tramp

Beethoven

Think Like a Dog

Oddball

And a favorite from childhood... All Dogs Go To Heaven!
