Here is this thing about animals in horror movies: We usually will never see them in other movies. When people die in horror movies we know the actor that played the role and see them in other movies so we know for sure that they didn't die. The dog in this segment was a golden retriever called "Odin". He is credited on imdb as "Otin" but this movie is his only credit and there are tons of golden retrievers, so without this warning how would we not know that the dog wasn't hurt? We don't have a warning that no people were killed in this film but we don't need it because we know that the actors were alive after this movie came out. This is why I think many people are more concerned with animals dying in horror movies than people.

they did say they didnt harm any animals at the end of the movie. i just watch the movie today and i saw that right at the end of the credits.if they didnt what kind of dog would it matter anyways? you knowing going to bring the dog back to life lol (joking). Why dont they say at the end no humans got hurt at the end either?

I beg to differ, fergie: the first answer was plenty funny! He got the question, and was just ribbing you. No need to get testy.
Anyway, I don't get any of the above posters having problems with anyone/thing getting killed in a horror movie: I mean, why are you watching this, anyway? It's a HORROR movie, things tend to die in horror movies. Dogs, people, leprechauns, stone giants, whatever, they're all just ticks on the body count. If you don't want to see things die, go watch a Disney movie, for cryin' out loud! Animals do all sorts of crap and meet all sorts of people in those and never die (although I hope you were all appropriately mortified by Cruella De Vil's plans for those pups!).
I don't mean to be as abrasive as I sound, I'm just utterly stunned to find such a post on a horror movie's board!

Alright, I'll just name the three that come up right now. There are more, though (and spoilers ahead, obviously).
Bambi: Bambi's mother.
The Lion King: Mufasa.
The Princess and the Frog: Ray.
And even people die, like Shan Yu (Mulan).
But I believe I've never seen a character die in any Pixar or Dreamworks movies.

Good calls, all, AliG! Ray was the first one that came to my mind, even though we've watched Bambi 3 times in the last month. You're probably right on the Pixar call (but I'm calling it a safe-ish bet Syndrome's not coming back), although Dreamworks is too big an umbrella for me to know.
