A Dog's Purpose and A Dog's Journey (the sequel) are good, although they're a bit sad.

Second Sight - its a true story about a blind woman and her guide dog.

Max - lovely film, don't bother with Max 2 though its rubbish in comparison.

Rex - also quite good.

Isle of Dogs. Not really cutsie but a lovely story and unique animation.

UnitedRoad · 23/02/2020 15:58

I saw a brilliant film on Sky Cinema the other day. It’s a british film, made in 2016, and I’d never even heard about it, until a recent bout of insomnia made me search for something different.

Dusty and Me.

I liked it so much I watched it again that evening BC with my husband and daughter.

UnitedRoad · 23/02/2020 15:58

Also The Truth about Cats and Dogs is great, but not for kids

greedygutty · 23/02/2020 16:01

Fluke - wonderful some sad bits but giant feel good factor
Secret life of pets - I can see my pets in this so clearly , sweet and funny , definitely not just for kids
