with a dog playing a significant role
Ulysses
based on Homer's epic poem 'Oδύσσεια'
with Kirk Douglas and Silvana Mangano
To my knowledge this is the only film, from the many inspired on 'The Odyssey', where Book XVII immortalizing my ancestor Argos, King Odysseus beloved Dog, is at least represented in one scene (at 1:25:40 of the film), though far from the poignant poem by Homer (read it here)
'Togo'
An Original Movie starring Willem Dafoe and Julianne Nicholson, “Togo” is the untold true story set in the winter of 1925 that treks across the treacherous terrain of the Alaskan tundra for an exhilarating and uplifting adventure that will test the strength, courage and determination of one man, Leonhard Seppala, and his lead sled dog, Togo.

'Il ladrone'
Caleb vive in Galilea ai tempi di Gesù e si arrabatta con qualche
furtarello e facendosi passare per mago. Per caso si trova a un banchetto
di nozze e vede Gesù trasformare l'acqua in vino e pensa subito di aver
trovato un concorrente più abile di lui. Riesce a rubare una collana
per poi perderla e trova Deborah con cui dividerà la vita. Sempre affascinato
dalla figura del Cristo, che continuerà a credere un mago più abile
di lui, finirà in croce con lui accusato di un vecchio furto. [The first
creature who touches his heart is a faithful dog]...
