No dogs are harmed. A small dog is depicted in a couple of early comedic scenes. I have no idea why three people have said that a dog dies.

There is a passing mention of Paddington having a "concerning marmalade habit", but no other parallels are drawn.

Paddington's uncle (a bear) is killed offscreen during an earthquake. The antagonist is a taxidermist and various "stuffed" animals are depicted throughout the film. In an early scene, she is shown preparing to kill a small monkey. She becomes distracted and drops him offscreen. At the end, an identical monkey dumps a load of manure over her head; the implication is that it is the same monkey and he has had his revenge.

No one falls to their death, but there are multiple close calls that may be triggering for some. While attempting to rescue Paddington, Henry climbs out onto a window ledge and shimmies across to another window. Along the way, he loses his footing and falls, but grabs hold of a gargoyle and manages to climb back up. While escaping a museum, Paddington climbs the interior wall of an incinerator flue. Near the top, he fully loses his hand hold and falls backward toward the flames below. The family grabs his feet at the last moment and he is pulled out. Near the end, the taxidermist is knocked off of a rooftop, but she is later shown to have grabbed a flag pole on the way down and is unharmed.

When Judy complains of being unable to wash her face, Paddington gives her a chin-to-forehead lick, leaving visible slobber. In another scene, Henry is shown brushing his teeth after Paddington has used his toothbrush to clean the wax out of his ears. Paddington points this out and Henry spits and gags into the sink.

paddington accidentally catches a pickpocket, in an attempt to return "his wallet", and children cheer for paddington as the police arrive to arrest the criminal. not the strongest copaganda out there, plus theyre not american cops, but technically there's not really anything outwardly disparaging about the police.

The antagonist shoots tranquilizer darts throughout the movie, occasionally hitting the mark. One dart embeds itself into a wood floor and she pulls it back out. In another scene, Henry attempts to convince a guard that he has a prosthetic arm and, to test this, the guard sticks his arm multiple times with the pin of his identification badge.

Paddington escapes a museum by climbing the exhaust flue of an active incinerator. This includes shots down the length of the duct, illustrating a very long and somewhat narrow drop to the flames below. Perhaps triggering for some.

Multiple lightning flashes, fast cuts and camera pans between falling trees during the introduction scene. Flickering light while a black and white film is shown (after the geographers guild). Flashing during a time-lapse footage of London skyline (while Paddington goes through his list). Fast camera panning, minor explosions, and flashlight/lightning flashes throughout the film.

In a short flashback, we see a couple - the woman visibly pregnant - walking into a hospital, then coming back out with a baby. It's all seen from outside the hospital and from a distance.

Mr Brown disguises himself as a woman in order to steal documents. On his way out of the building, he is flirted with and called ‘sexy’ by a man. This pokes fun at the man being ‘tricked’ by Mr Brown’s disguise.

In a scene where Henry is disguised as a woman, he shows a guard his identification badge and the guard remarks that he looks different. Henry explains, "I've lost a lot of weight" and the guard makes a remark to the effect of, "I'll say you have!"

The movie is a metaphor for racism, so there are several comments throughout the movie that impose real life racial stereotypes onto Paddington and are generally racist (i.e. Hoping Paddington won't keep the neighbors up with loud "jungle music", assumptions that Paddington is a con artist or a liar, etc.)

During a chase scene in which Paddington attempts to return a wallet to a pickpocket, there are a number of near-misses with cars and the pickpocket finally loses control of his vehicle and rams it into a parked car. There is minimal damage and no one is harmed.
