Corrected entry: According to Dawn of the Dead (2004), zombies ignore animals like dogs, which is why they sent the dumb mutt across town. In this film, when the two zombies are fighting in the ring, the main character asks, "What kind of food are we fighting over this time: dog or cat?"

Correction: Dawn of the Dead (2004) is not a Romero film, it is a remake of Romero's Dawn of the Dead (1978), but it was not made by him. In Romero's films the zombies do eat animals, and they only walk slowly, unlike Dawn of the Dead (2004) where they run.
