People think that I'm a cat person just because I have 3 cats, haha. I am not a cat person or a dog person – I'm an animal person. I love any and all animals. I would adopt every stray animal in the world if I could. I'm the girl that is up at 4am watching cute animal videos on the internet, with tears running down my cheeks. I'm also the girl that can't stand to watch those terribly sad animal charity commercials. If you tell me there's an animal in a movie, you will find me watching it the very next day.
There are some movies that just make you want to go hug your pet. All of these movies feature a dog (or a few) that is so likable that you want to make him a part of your family. Instead, you can just go hug your dog and tell him how much he means to you.

But when no one comes to get the dog, Parker convinces his wife, Cate (Joan Allen), to welcome him as part of the family. He dubs the puppy Hachiko–Hachi, for short–because of the Japanese symbol for good luck that's hanging from his collar.
