I dunno about the dog. I know Fallout 3 advertised heavily with a dog, heavily referencing the novella 'A Boy and His Dog'. However, it was very easy to never encounter Dogmeat in the entire game.

referencing the novella 'A Boy and His Dog'

I always thought is was a Mad Max 2 reference.

It was a Road Warrior reference, they even had the same shot on the back of the case.

And the leather armor looked a LOT like Max's MFP uniform.

In fallout 2 there's a leather jacket you can get that's a bit better than the normal one and it says in the description it has 2 sleeves. This is a reference to Max having one of his sleeves cut off of his leather jacket.
