A Dog’s Journey (2019)
Based on W. Bruce Cameron’s best-selling books, this sequel to A Dog’s Purpose tells the story of a dog who’s reincarnated over and over in one special person’s life… until he’s needed to look after a little girl.
It has a 91% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes and stars Golden Globe nominee Dennis Quaid, with Ant-Man’s Abby Ryder Fortson as the young CJ, and Frozen’s Olaf, Josh Gad, as the voice of Bailey the dog.
Common Sense Media recommends the movie for ages 10+, saying this “sentimental sequel is a tribute to the enduring bond between dogs and their human best friends”.
