You'll see the dog run into the turkey coop and bark at the birds. The next scene you see the dog lying in the coop surrounded by feathers and a turkey who is badly injured and bloody. The young girl is talking to her dad's gf who asks why the turkeys can't lay on their own eggs. The girl answers then you hear a gunshot and she runs out to see her dog, Magic, covered by a tarp and dead. She lays on the body and sobs. If you want to skip it fast forward when the girl is talking about the turkeys and their eggs (I'm sorry I missed that time stamp) until 10 mins 45 secs. You'll see the girl in a tree and a man looking up at her and laughing.

Lewellen is lured into a decrepit building by a riverbank by the milkman (only referred to as Wooden's Boy) and her friend Buddy. There, Wooden's Boy forces her to strip naked and sing the titular song, using Elvis tickets as incentive. He then pushes her down and rapes her while telling her to keep singing.

If you count being forced to get naked and sing/dance and then getting raped and cutting your hand on a nail during said rape torture, then yes.

At 1:22:05, Lewellen says "You're just a n**ger, you know? You're just a n**ger" to Charles, a major character who works with snakes and helps her overcome her trauma from being raped

There's a little bit of blood. At around 10 minutes, we see Lewellen's dog Mangey with feathers on his face, and the camera pans up to show a bloodied, but still breathing, chicken. Later, when Lewellen is assaulted, her right hand falls on a large nail and you see blood pooling around it (exacerbated by the rain). There's also a scene where Ellen, Lewellen's aunt, gets bit on her lower leg by a rattlesnake and Charles ties a tourniquet under her knee to suck the venom out, spitting blood into the grass next to him.
