Ant

As all the others can be expanded into different animals:

Dog - Dogfish
Cat - Catfish
Mouse - ?
Mole - ?
Deer - Reindeer
Pig - Guinea Pig

Thus Ant can become Anteater

They are all parts of a name of a movie:

Reservoir DOGs
That darn CAT
MOUSEtrap
The MOLEpeople (obscure film starring John Agar from 1956)
DEERhunter
Babe, PIG in the city

So my answer is
tiger
dragon
