The word “there” is used to point out something or someone's location. The word “their” is used to refer to a belonging or ownership of something, and the word “they're” is a combination of they and are.
Among the three sentences, the sentence “ The dog went over there.” uses "there" correctly. It can be seen that the sentence is referring to a specific location where the dog is going to. For the sentence “ There dog is so cute." , using the word “their” is the correct sentence structuration, since the word “their” refers to an ownership. The other sentence, “ They're dog ran away from home” is also wrong since "they're" is just a combination of they and are. Putting that in a sentence which infers ownership to the dog is not appropriate.
