Yes it's a work of fiction but he was really tugging on that leash and dragging the poor dog. Yes it was played for comedy but I'm not sure the dog felt the same way.
And I wonder how they did that scene where he smashed the dogs heads together. -

I liked this movie, but I was appalled at the animal cruelty as well. He was tugging and kicking that poor little dog across the street, and as another poster mentioned, smashing Dobermans together and berating a horse.

You really should fix your signature line. It's "Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'."
Rewatch the movie if you don't believe me or better yet you can probably find the scene on YouTube.
You can't handle the truth! -

Yes, he jerked the horses head towards him by the reins when he said "look at me when I'm talking to you".which can cut up a horses mouth.
And yes, he was jerking the little dog by the leash a few times as he walked across the street. It was all unnecessary. -

For as loving, loyal, fun and just generally awesome as dogs are, they're dumb as f^ck. They're just as happy to walk around all day smelling everything, but humans don't have time for that $hit, so you use various methods to get things moving. Anyone who has ever walked a dog on a leash has tugged on it, and nudged the dog with a foot to get them moving when necessary. It's not cruelty. It's practicality.
