![]() 45 Bruno from “The Triplets of Belleville”(2003) And, on this list of best dogs in films, she’s the only one who actually pays homage to film history. But one stands above the rest: Miss Agnes, the Shih Tzu who recreates scenes from various films (like “Gone With the Wind”) with the help of her parents, Scott Donlan and Stefan Vanderhoof (John Michael Higgins and Michael McKean). 46 Miss Agnes from “Best in Show”(2000)Īll of the contenders (and their bafflingly goofy owners) in “Best in Show,” a mockumentary about dog shows, deserve a treat and a trophy. Without Daisy, would there even be a “John Wick” film franchise? Luckily, we’ll never know. Daisy simply wanted to spend time covering her person with licks and cuddles, but she didn’t die in vain-in fact, you could say that Wick spends the rest of the film, and perhaps even the rest of the sequels, avenging her. This Beagle puppy, who was gifted to Wick by his dying wife, plays a short but pivotal role in the film’s early scenes, ultimately leading to her demise. ![]() If you’ve seen “John Wick,” you know that Daisy deserved better. What more can you ask of a pup? 47 Daisy from “John Wick” (2014) We really can’t overstate how many charmingly unlikely things Skip does throughout “My Dog Skip,” from eating popcorn at the movies to driving an actual car! But more importantly, he helps Willie make friends and is friendly to everyone, no matter what heavy situations they’re going through. His relationship with his shy human bestie Willie (Frankie Muniz) is as wholesome as it gets. Of all the many Jack Russell Terriers in cinema, Skip is one of the greatest. He’s definitely among the best movie dogs in history, but don’t take our word for it-you can also ask the judges of the Cannes Film Festival, who awarded Uggie the much-coveted Palm Dog award. In this contemporary silent film, Uggie stole every scene in which “The Dog” appears, from staying by the side of the actor who cares for him even after he falls into bankruptcy to helping rescue the actor from a fire. His character didn’t get a name in the “The Artist,” which won the Best Picture Oscar in 2012, but Uggie the Jack Russell Terrier was a silent film star in his own right. ![]() By the end of the film, he’s convinced Turner (and the rest of us) that dogs are more than worth a little-or a lot-of mess. Hooch is such a rambunctious pooch, bringing not just chaos but some actual spice and excitement into Turner’s perfectionist life. Who needs a human partner when you can have a dog instead? Tom Hanks’ Turner is dragged through a string of wacky circumstances by the Dogue de Bordeaux Hooch after he’s adopted in order to help solve a crime. ![]()
