Depiction in films

After the credits roll, the human world's version of Spike appears alongside the human world's Twilight eating some dog food from a bowl. Unlike Spike the Dragon, Dog Spike only barks.

Spike in Friendship Games.

Spike's dog counterpart from the human world appear along with Twilight's human counterpart in the film. As he was depicted in the post-credits scene of Rainbow Rocks, Spike the Dog is depicted as being non-sentient and only able to communicate like an actual dog. Both Rarity and Fluttershy recognize him when he appears out of Twilight's backpack. Spike shows much concern for Twilight throughout the film, as he dislikes Canterlot High and worries about Twilight's trip there.

Once Twilight's medallion absorbs Fluttershy's magic, causing dimensional rifts to Equestria, Spike follows a jackalope through one of the rifts and is accidentally exposed to some of Fluttershy's magic, which gives him the ability to talk. During the climax of the film, when Twilight transforms into the evil Midnight Sparkle, Spike calls out to her and gives a pleading look, momentarily bringing her back to her senses so Sunset Shimmer can turn her back to normal.

Spike is present when Twilight's Equestrian counterpart appears from the portal, happily wagging his tail at the sight of a second Twilight Sparkle.

Personality

Spike with Twilight at Canterlot High.

Like his Equestrian counterpart, this Spike is highly fond of Twilight Sparkle, whom he has assisted and lived with his whole life. He is also curious about the magic at Canterlot High, especially when he starts to gain an ability to speak. But he nonetheless has the same personality of his counterpart when it comes to friendship.

"Yeah, that's my girl!"
