Horror games with dogs on PlayStation

In these horror games a dog is either the one thing you want to keep safe or the thing hunting you. Some send you into the dark to find a lost pet, or walk beside you as a companion that hears danger first. Others set guard dogs and infected hounds on your trail, faster than you and able to follow your scent when you hide.
