Five Stories That Know Everything's Better With Dinosaurs
  From time travel to alternate timelines, science fiction authors keep
finding novel ways to bring us into contact with dinosaurs--some
friendly, others not so much.

Interesting...very interesting. A few that fit came to mind, including one who's title was elusive as heck for a while (the Aldiss) - and in chasing it down, I found one that I had forgotten in an anthology I'd never heard of:
A Gun for Dinosaur - L. Sprague de Camp
I (re)read this earlier this year.
Tunnel Through Time - Lester del Rey and Paul W. Fairman (This was probably just Fairman, working from an idea/outline Lester gave him.)
This was one of the first two science fiction books I ever read.[1]
Poor Little Warrior! - Brian W. Aldiss
I was chasing down the title to this Aldiss story when I stumbled across this anthology that I'd never heard of:
The Science Fictional Dinosaur, ed. by Martin H. Greenberg, Robert Silverberg, and Charles G. Waugh
The complete list of stories is here
https://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/pl.cgi?46564
which includes this story I read just last year (but had forgotten):
Wildcat - Poul Anderson
and which includes many other stories I'm unfamiliar with.[2]
Just fyi:
Laumer’s Dinosaur Beach barely has any dinosaurs in it at all.
Lastly, a story that (to me) only sort of fits:
The Doors of His Face, the Lamps of His Mouth - Roger Zelazny
which features a hunt for a 300-foot-long denizen of the Venusian oceans commonly called "Ikky"...on Venus.

[1] The other candidate being Silverberg's Planet of Death
[2] I've read the Asimov, but I do not remember one thing about it.
