4. A Dog Named Christmas (2009)
Based on a best-selling novel, this Hallmark Hall of Fame movie tells the touching story of a young man with a learning disability who convinces his family to foster a dog for the holidays. It's a beautiful reminder of the bond between humans and dogs.

5. Beethoven's Christmas Adventure (2011)
Everyone's favorite St. Bernard returns in this holiday caper. Beethoven speaks (literally, thanks to some elf magic) and helps save Christmas after Santa's sleigh crashes in a suburban town. It's silly, fun, and full of big-dog energy.

6. The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993)
Is it a Halloween movie? Is it a Christmas movie? We say it's both. Zero, Jack Skellington's ghost dog, steals every scene he's in. With his glowing pumpkin nose leading the way, he's the spooky-cute equivalent of Rudolph.
