There aren't any actual dogs that are primarily focused on, but King, one of the main characters, heavily resembles a dog-like creature. He does not die, but is occasionally harmed.

The owl house is sentient and often abused by ignoring, belittling, punching his walls and even slamming his doors. A bug monster and owl monster are tied up and tazed by demon hunters/“animal control”, a group of abused Palismans (familiars) run away to the woods to live with Bat Queen some have extensive scarring or visible damage, Owlbert runs away to these woods after being hurt (a crack forms on his head) and misused before the abuser makes it up to him. S1E16 Amity beats Hooty up and a snaggleback is forced to be a disco ball after complaining they feel nauseous and their arms are tired and aren’t helped down. S2E8 Eda is trapped while in half owl form and Eda excepts the owl side of her instead of fighting it and causing it pain

It is heavily implied that Amity's parents are abusive, in the brief glimpses of her childhood we see. She is forced to end her friendship with Willow, because her parents threaten to ruin Willow's chances of getting into Hexside (a school for magic).

Spoilers for Season 2 especially!
It's implied in some scenes that Hunter might've been abused by Belos, who is some sort of parental figure to him (up until ”Hollow Mind”, Belos presented himself as his uncle). Besides some remarks made by Hunter and his fear of failing to complete an order given by Belos, one notable scene is in the episode ”Any Sport in a Storm”, where Darius raises his hand and Hunter tenses, only for Darius to pat his head. Another example is in ”Hunting Palismen”, where Belos' ”curse” acts up and Hunter looks away, OR when, in the same scene, Belos nearly cuts Hunter's face, were he not to move his head a bit to the left. And even then, he manages to cut very small strands of hair.
Another sequence is in ”Hollow Mind”, where Hunter flinches when Belos twirls his loose strand of hair.

Sort of. There are fictional substances that are analogous to real-world drugs. S2E08 features a sleep-inducing powder that also acts like ketamine, and many episodes include references to "apple blood" which is talked about like alcohol and at one point shown served in a bar.

A main character, Eda, drinks "Apple Blood" frequently. This could represent coffee, as she drinks it every morning and is able to cut it from her diet easily, but in season two, she's shown in a place that looks similar to a bar, while drinking apple blood to cope with something upsetting. Either way, she doesn't appear drunk. The closest we get is Luz, the main character, off-handedly mentioning that after drinking too much apple blood, they once had to get Eda off the roof, though that could be Eda's eccentricity combined with caffeine.

Not the same species, but sentient creatures are canonically often eaten in the show's setting. On-screen, we see a character eat a sapient octopus demon whole. We see fairies baked into a pie, but they do not get eaten on-screen.

Emperor Belos, the man antagonist of the series, has a condition that causes him to turn into what is essentially a gooey rotting corpse. It's not bloody or super gory on accounts of the art style, but it's still pretty horrifying and not fun to look at.

There's only one time where a character sacrifices themself and dies, Season 3 episode 1
There's also several scenes where a character tries to sacrifice themselves: the last 2 episodes of season 1, Season 2 Episode 7, Season 2 episode 19, and Season 2 episode 21.

no r word, but the word “half-a-witch” is used in a derogatory way to refer to witches with little or no magic or who develop magic late, and at times that still makes me a bit uncomfortable as if it’s approaching a magical equivalent of the word especially in season 3 episode 2

s1e14 14:45 it’s just a mention: theres no audio or visual,
s2e3 05:00 just gagging but was triggering to me,
s2e7: 02:47 visual of sick in a bag and discussion of it happening + 19:28 a lot of build up but no visual and minor audio, s2e14 21:00 no visual minor audio

Luz’s mother is a nurse and often wears scrubs. There is a reference to brain surgery. Willow also gets amnesia/brain damage, Luz and Amity go into her head to heal her. Skaras prom date stages a hospital scene and there are people dressed as doctors holding a saw, he then pulls out a beating heart with “grom” (prom) on it. When amity has a flashback to when she played grudgby there are nurses helping a hurt player. S1E17 gus’s flags break and they put bandaids on th and attach them to an OC and heart rate monitor which can be heard beeping in the background during the match. S2E8 King gets a needle/blood test but no blood shown.

After escaping an abusive situation and nearly losing his life in the process, one teenage character suffers a triggering event when he sees an image of his abuser later on. This happens in S2E18: Labyrinth Runners. It's also implied that the main protagonist is starting to develop PTSD, or perhaps already has a form of it after losing her father suddenly at a young age.

There is an evil kraken puppeteer (S1E2). This is a combination of two classic antisemitic tropes. It's obviously accidental, but I wish they had consulted an expert. Also, the character "Tiny Nose" who loves conspiracy theories seems like a bad idea. The series seems to suggest that conspiracy theories are quirky and fun, when in reality they are harmful – and most of them are deeply antisemitic.

it’s a Disney show set primarily in a realm where racism doesn’t exist.
The show has been critiqued regarding race though, and it’s still a problem even if they tried to address it in season 3 and the tail end of season 2.
• The white supporting characters are given more attention than supporting characters of color, even if the white characters joined later, especially in season 2.
• POC tend to have more “white-washed” traits. Luz is Afro-Dominican, but her and her mom’s hair are pencil straight in the first two seasons and she doesn’t have that many Black features. (That’s rectified in season 3, where they both have curly hair and you can see a straightener in the trash, LOL). Gus and especially Skara both wear their hair in styles that aren’t really protective or healthy for Black hair for most of the show. And people complain about Willow not being visibly Asian/Blasian enough, as a lot of people think she’s white until they see her parents.

not literally but maybe metaphorically but from that metaphor he’s revived… by which i mean that Gus and Willow are kinda killed from the story for much of season 2 to focus on White characters, but complaints were listened to and addressed in-show the best they could with the limited time

In the setting of the show, homophobia and transphobia do not exist. The female protagonist has a girlfriend, and the only time people disapprove of their relationship is because the two come from different social classes.

I'm not sure if it counts as gore, but the plot takes place on the body of a fallen giant, and while it's not graphic there are occasional moments where you can see stuff like their bones or their heart.
