Let's call them Murder Dogs. I first saw them in "War of the Worlds" where they were roaming the countryside sampling human DNA. Unfortunately that required them to shoot a bolt into people's foreheads. Since then I have seen pictures of then in the real world in Shanghai where at least one remote-controlled robot dog walks the streets with a megaphone strapped to its back. The robot dog is about the size of a terrier and barks orders to residents: stay inside, wash your hands, check your temperature.
The "dogs" have been adapted for military use as well. I'm not sure if they are remote-controlled or autonomous - but either way they are a scary proposition if they're on your trail.
