The Dog River is a river in Census division 23 in Northern Manitoba, Canada.[1] It is in the Hudson Bay drainage basin and is a right tributary of the Churchill River.[1][2][3][4]

The Dog River begins at an unnamed lake and flows east, then turns north, heading roughly parallel to the Deer River, which it takes in as a right tributary, and reaches its mouth at the Churchill River, 45 kilometres (28 mi) upstream of that river's own mouth at Hudson Bay.[1][2][3][4]
