Man’s best friend is also man’s best co-star. There have been so many movies starring dogs! These films highlight everything we love the most about those animals – their loyalty, their compassion, their love of causing mischief, and their ability to touch the human heart. Oh, and sometimes the doggie actors have fascinating stories as well. Let’s take a look at all the best puppers from the world of Hollywood. But don’t worry – your dog is the best dog, as well.
Toto — The Wizard of Oz
Little Toto is one of the most famous movie dogs of all time. He accompanies Dorothy all the way from the monochrome Kansas to the colorful world of Oz, and almost causes her to remain in Oz forever after jumping out of the Wizard’s balloon at the wrong moment.
The dog that played Toto was a female terrier named Terry, and she was actually paid more for appearing in the film than some of the human Munchkin actors were. She died in 1945 and there’s a memorial for her at the L.A. Hollywood Forever Cemetery.
Charlie — All Dogs Go To Heaven
All Dogs Go To Heaven is a film for the whole family, but its dark themes may put some parents off showing it to their children. It’s all about a dog called Charlie B. Barkin, and the redemption he finds.
Charlie is a very bad dog right up until he meets Anne-Marie, played by child actor Judith Barsi, and he sacrifices himself to save her life. It’s all okay, though, because he gets to go to heaven and live on as a ghost!
The series chronicled the escapades of Carl Fredricksen, the main character from Up, portrayed by Ed Asner in one of his final performances, and received high praise. The romantic scene of two dogs eating spaghetti suddenly became heartwarming as Tramp finally found his happy ending with Lady’s family adopting him into their loving home. Awww. Buddy, from “Air Bud,” continued playing basketball despite battling cancer, leaving a lasting legacy. Skipper from “My Dog Skip” was portrayed by three talented dog actors, captivating audiences with their tricks. Copper from “The Fox and the Hound” had a bittersweet story with his fox friend Tod. Cosmo, inspired by Laika the space dog, had adventures with the Guardians of the Galaxy. Rowlf, the Muppet piano player, captured hearts in “The Muppet Show.” Eddie, played by Moose, stole the show in “Frasier” with his high intelligence. Snoopy, the iconic beagle from the Peanuts franchise, continues to delight audiences. Marley, from “Marley and Me,” left a lasting impression with his heart-wrenching performance. Daisy’s role in “John Wick” triggered a vengeful spree by Wick, played by the dog actor Andy. Uggie, from “The Artist,” charmed audiences and even had a fan campaign for an Oscar nomination before passing away in 2015. He even won a Palm Dog award at the Cannes film festival.
“I really wanted her. Please, please, please let me have her.’ But you know, she has her own family now so it was just another one of those fleeting Hollywood romances.”
Goofy — Disney
Believe it or not, Goofy is a dog. Did you ever wonder why he wore trousers and spoke, while Pluto, who’s also a dog, is a non-vocal pet who Mickey keeps on a leash? No? Well, now you will. Since his original appearance back in 1932 — that makes him even older in dog years — the character’s had a number of names, from Dippy Dawg to Goofus and Goofy.
It’s unlikely the good-natured clumsy eccentric is intentionally hiding his real name, but who knows? Goofy is a mysterious dog.
