And, if you’re feeling brave, the original Star Wars trilogy
The Wizard of Oz, maybe? Toto is important, and moves the plot, but then, maybe he’s just a MacGuffin.
Anchorman: The legend of Ron Burgundy
The original filmed and edited version didn’t have Baxter coming back after the Jack Black scene, and test audiences hated it so much that they want back to film a new ending that unexpectedly brought Baxter back for that pivotal scene.
“Good Boy”. Its a pretty basic haunted house movie, from the perspective of a dog.
Finch
Post apocalyptic world with Tom Hanks, his dog and a robot.
Supergirl
Is ‘guy dies and is reincarnated into a purgatory-like existence of a sapient dog that lives with but cannot communicate with his family’ a dog movie that’s not a dog movie? Because if so, Fluke. (It is very poorly reviewed)
Don’t forget his best friend (or business partner?) moves in and starts dating your ex wife and raising your kids

Prey.
Iron Will
Funny Farm, I Am Legend, The Outlaw Josey Wales
A Boy and His Dog?
