The dog is off screen killed. The dog is downstairs with the dad, and can be heard barking. Camera cuts to the characters upstairs, and the dad joins them. He leaves the dog downstairs, and you can hear a whimper, and silence.

We don't see the dog again, implying an off screen death.

This happens in the last 10 minutes of the movie or so, should you want to skip the sound entirely.

It’s not exactly a seizure but it looks a lot like one. The people will shake and twitch and one persons eyes roll back into there head but it doesn’t seem to be a seizure just a side effect of the of the implant.
