In honor of Disney’s extremely furry reimagining of Eliot in the remake of Pete’s Dragon, we bring you 13 dogs who believe they’re fearsome dragons. According to director David Lowery, he was inspired by his pet cat to create a warmer and more huggable dragon to be Pete’s best friend on film.
Pete’s original cartoon dragon may have panted like a dog and been gifted with puppylike clumsiness. But the new CGI version represents the nurturing and cuddly side of our bond with cats and dogs like never before.
