Meghan McCarthy would have you believe that in every single Chris Van Allsburg book there is at least one sighting of a spotted dog. I stand amazed. And here I thought I knew my stuff. Just goes to show, eh?
I noticed in a long-ago article about him that CVA has a toy version of that dog (but close to actual size--a pull-toy of some kind?) in his attic studio... it always seemed weird to me that he was never asked about the dog in interviews.

That must have been some party!

And generally a Scotty in David Small books and ALWAYS a small, jointed toy bear in Sarah Stewart/David Small books. Always.
Don't forget Jenny the Sealyham terrier in Sendak's books.
