Dogs are to balls as ducks are to water. They go together very well. In Air Bud, Buddy the Dog worked magic with a basketball. Along the way, Buddy also helped his young master gets out of a depression caused by the death of his father.
Buddy played a bitingly decisive role, too, in a custody case involving his former owner. All in a day’s work for a dog. A dog like Buddy, of course.

Bailey, the Golden Retriever, was given a golden handshake by his dear recently departed owner, Constance Pennington, in the movie Bailey’s Billion $. A handshake to the tune of billions. Of dollars. Not exactly what Caspar, her nephew, and Dolores, his wife, would have envisaged even in their worst nightmares. So they had to find a way to undo her will, so to say. Did they succeed?

A movie that explores the idea of re-incarnation, Fluke is the name of the Golden Retriever which is the new corporeal identity of a man who had died in a car accident.
When Fluke becomes aware of his previous life, he goes in search of his widow and son and tries to make up for what was missing in his previous life with them. Not recommended if you are not in the mood to be moved to think about deep philosophical concepts. Would be a fluke indeed if this movie does not activate your tear ducts.
