15 CHRISTMAS MOVIES TO WATCH WITH YOUR DOG!
‘Tis the season for warm, cozy dog movies!
I will admit… my guilty pleasure is watching Christmas movies (even when it’s not Christmas)! But it was always a tradition to watch a Christmas movie that involved animals of some kind on Christmas eve with my mom. Each year when we picked out a movie like “Santa Buddies” my step-dad would roll his eyes (knowing he had no say) while my mom and I enjoyed laughing at the cute puppies on Christmas eve.
Do you love the traditional dog heroes best, like Snoopy in “A Charlie Brown Christmas,” or is it the more modern flurry of feel-good dog comedies that sweep you along?
I know I’ll be snuggling in with my husband and our dog Hannah to enjoy the warmth of these feel-good dog movies and I hope you will, too.
Pick your own favs from my list of 15 movies and get ready for cuddle time with your bestie.
P.S.: Fun fact, “A Dog Named Christmas” in 2009 helped get dogs out of animal shelters into warm loving homes over the holiday season, when Hallmark, CBS and author Greg Kincaid sponsored a “Foster a Lonely Pet for the Holidays” campaign with Petfinder.com.
Happy Howlidays!
