Shadow is abandoned, and he is technically an animal, but he isn't really treated as such. People communicate with Shadow as if he were human.

While Shadow is undoubtedly sad during many parts of this series, he is treated more like a person with powers than a pet.

Cops are never really depicted as a strictly good force in the sonic universe, and are typically morally grey at best.

Characters do destroy military assets that are said to be worth a lot of money, but this is delivered as a passing detail, and does not follow the priceless artifact story trope at all.
