If you consider a wolf a dog, then yes. Great Gray Wolf Sif must be fought to proceed with the game.

In the first level of the game, the character that rescues you from your cell takes his life off camera after you speak with him.

An adult character in Anor Londo is wearing a very form fitting and revealing dress, however they do not seem to be distressed about this and chose to wear it/be there. Players may leave comments such as “Amazing chest ahead”, but that is the extent and can be avoided by playing offline.

Unless you count the player characters need to constantly chug glowing orange juice, no.
There are various items that can be consumed but I wouldn't consider any of them drugs, they are mostly buff and healing items.

There are several (very, very large) cats that are typically fought and killed in one area of the game, though they are not strictly mandatory to fight and could theoretically be skipped.

There is a boss called Quelaag who is half spider (her bottom half is a giant spider). Her sister who is also half spider is an npc.
There are spider-like enemies in the same area though they can be avoided and aren't particularly bad.

There are many points where you can be burned alive, and if you choose to you can burn others alive. While such victims clearly emote that they are suffering, the effect is not particularly graphic.

In order to join a specific covenant the player must “nestle into” a coffin in an underground crypt. This is optional and the player character is able to harmlessly leave the coffin after about 30 seconds.

Some bosses can be injured/staggered by hitting their ankles and they will fall or limp. However the Achilles Tendon is never specifically mentioned.

Sort of. There aren't any scripted jumpscares, but there are definitely times when an enemy can sneak up on you and frighten you or attack from off screen. There are also enemies that hide and can grab you unawares. It's not particularly offensive, and it isn't really a horror game. There are definitely scary parts though. There is an area that is very dark and you are required to carry a light source, even when you do you can only see a short distance and enemies can and likely will appear out of darkness and scare you.

Some nonhuman enemies have spitting attacks. As well as attacks that cause clouds of gas, no farting that I know of.
There is a throwable item called "dung pie" which is poop.
There is also an opportunity to perform a critical attack on a boar where the player stabs a sword up it's bottom.

The starting area is referred as the "Undead Asylum"
It is however more so a medieval jail than anything resembling modern mental institute.

There’s an option to climb inside a stone casket. It closes on you, and there’s a short stretch where you see from the inside where you’re trapped. This only lasts a few seconds and might be skippable (don’t remember off the top of my head).

As mentioned above (does a mother die) this is only implied by a "twin souls" item being recovered from a woman's corpse. It's also missable and skippable.

Gwyndolin, who is arguably a trans woman, is referred to with male pronouns. In-game messages left by other players frequently call Gwyndolin the t-slur, although this was not the choice of the developers.

Players can leave messages in your world using a template and a list of phrases. One of these is "fatty". It's fairly tame but it's there.

Gwyndolin is described in-game as a boy raised as a girl, although it is implied that they may be a trans woman. Either way, they are consistently misgendered.

Gwyndolin, youngest son of gwyn, was raised as a girl. You could argue that this would mean they are trans. They are an optional boss at anor londo.

Queelag is a half-woman, half-spider hybrid, and her torso is nude, however, her chest is covered by her hair. Also, players can leave messages in your world, and a possible message is "Try finger but hole". I think those are the only sexual parts.

The main character either ends up linking the first flame, revitalizing the land and curing the undead curse at the cost of their life, or to not kindle the flame, and bring about an age of darkness.
