Great list, Jen. I'll second your recommendation of Dog. I rented it almost a year ago the day I had to put my pit bull down. Not a film about a dead dog, but a film about death and a dog. It dawned on me near the end that the lead character and I have the same initials, a meaningless detail that meant a lot to me in that moment.
Have you ever seen A Boy and His Dog? It’s my mom’s favorite, so I was watching it as a kid. I assume you’ve seen it, but thought of it immediately. Good list!
I had to read “where the red fern grows” in 5th grade. About a week after we had to put my dog down. It wasn’t a good experience.
