*The* dog doesn't die, nor do any characters we have grown to care about, but one or two background dogs are shown to have died off-screen. The movie is meant to be satisfying overall to anyone who cares about dogs, as the dogs are given a happy ending.

There aren't any horses in the film, therefore they cannot die

There is a rather sudden scene of fish and a crab being killed for sushi by a chef.

The movie is pretty much about animal cruelty.

Dogs (that are characters in this film) fight several times, but not in the sense of dog fighting as a show for humans.

Why is this yes? Zero cats die the only thing that happens is that they're shown in jail.

A skeleton of a dog that presumably belonged to someone (considering it has a collar) is seen at one point, but its death is not onscreen.

No, but there is talk of dogs being experimented on and harmful drug use on the part of the people experimenting on the dogs. It is not made explicit but it is in the realm of possibility.

There is an over the top scene where one character physically assaults the grieving widow of a political opponent, demanding information about a conspiracy.

In one scene near the end, two people are graphically shown being cut open in surgery. Not sure if that counts, but it's at least similar enough that it could affect similar people.

Mention only; some dogs are accused of being cannibals. One of them denounces this, but explains that they had to resort to cannibalism out of desperation once.

Hard to say. The goriest it gets in my opinion is a surgical scene fairly close to the end of the movie, which is in semi-graphic detail (despite being animated).

Not in screen, but, before the story, some dogs have been victims of experiment in a laboratory.

Not really, though there is a kidney transplant. Spot also gains a robotic prosthetic eye and a cast on his leg at the ending of the movie.

There is a scene where the main antagonist is shown taking a bath, and there is partial claymation nudity when he stands up, showing his back and bottom.

Not only is there a hospital scene, there is an intensely graphic surgery scene. Like, we're talking scalpels and little clay kidneys that make squishy sounds.

Some of the dogs are described as having mental/ behavioral health symptoms affiliated with the main diseases, and many of the characters are hopeless and show signs of suicidal ideation.
No specific mental illnesses are mentioned though.

I would say no as I was unaware of what characters were gay unless it was implied in context then I would change my answer.

This movie was hugely riddled with orientalism. There are a variety of appropriative elements, and deeply disappointing themes. Japanese speakers are specifically not accurately translated in subtitles, despite being heavily featured in the movie, and there is no plot reason for any of it.
At one point the dogs are rounded up and put in a camp, plotted for genocide. This felt particularly in poor taste with the context of Japanese internment.
Specifically speaking in terms of main character perspective, the dogs as a "minority" are also propagandized in the movie, which is an overarching plot.

there is symbolic hate speech against dogs, but i'm not sure that counts.

There is a bath scene with a naked butt on screen, but the nudity is very brief and is overshadowed by the character having a large colorful tattoo.

There isn't direct ridicule for characters crying, and male characters actually cry frequently in the film, but in an opening scene, one of the main characters has a speech chastising the other dogs for hopeless feelings they're expressing.

It is somewhat implied that the illnesses that the dogs have may eventually be fatal, but it doesn't seem to be an issue within the timeline of the movie.

There are sumo wrestlers put in the movie for no apparent reason, although they didn't seem to be there for any comic relief.

Though there is a scene where several characters are in deep water, and IIRC they're initially presumed to have drowned. The scene is fairly intense.

During the traditional sushi preparation scene, done by a master chef, where a live fish and crab are gutted and prepared. It's extremely amusingdisheartening based on your stand, but overall an extreme scene.
Also, a very graphic kidney transplantation scene with blood splatter and breathing" flesh. This is a claymation and it's done in a professional way, looking like a documentary recording from a distance and a fixed view, rather than exploitation scene, but it's quite graphic too.
