"The world of Zeytin, a stray dog living life on the streets of Istanbul."

Lost in the wood
Mrs SFM turns off any doggie films (esp. Lassie films) as she blubs like a drain if one so much as slightly hurts its paw. It’s not worth the grief and tears.

I just read the synopsis of that film and now wish I hadn’t

So many particulars. So many questions.
in James Belushi's K9 when the dog gets shot and you wish a thousand deaths on the baddie
Dr. Furface
One small step for me
Don’t know which one you mean but A Boy And His Dog was really good

Lovely film but I watched it a couple of weeks ago.

More like *fanny* la rouge!
Watch My Dog Tulip. I know you have an aversion to animation, but this is a serious, grown-up film. I know you’ll love it.Cheers all. Some gooduns here.
I'm watching Fluke now and should get another in before I pick Mrs S up this evening

so defeated, thinks it's funny
I'd been going to suggest that one! Would also add Reservoir Dogs, Straw Dogs and Dog Day Afternoon to that list.
Had seen the poster to that one floating about a bit as a happy new year sort of thing, considered posting it on the bandwidthz thread or similar but didn't much feel like getting into a discussion of the film's content (not actually seen the film myself, read the Ellison short story though).

Books, not bombs
This may not seem an appropriate choice and it's in Italian, but it's a great film albeit a bit gritty. One of the lead characters is a dig groomer. Dogman.
Johnny Vodka
The Abominable Scotsman
It's a bit meh IIRC, though also IIRC it includes a reference to Cujo, which is a much better scary dog film (if you like that sort of thing).

not the only raver in the village
Bingo is good, particularly the bit when he manages to make a phone call

If you're still looking for dog films..this is one is nice..
Also called Palma.
The film is inspired by an incredible story of a shepherd dog named Palm who was inadvertently left in the airport by her owner. She befriends nine-year old Nicholas whose mother dies leaving him with a father he barely knows - a pilot who finds the dog at the airport. It's a story of amazing adventures, true friendship and unconditional love.

I think this suggestion isn't quite right for this thread so maybe ignore.
That might fit a bit more with the thread's vibe than a film about deprogramming a dog that's been trained to attack and kill black people.
(It's actually a pretty interesting film and worth a watch.)
