And it's extra traumatic, because the dog can talk, after a fashion.

There is a moment in book 1 that suggests an antagonist is thinking about / is threatening S.A., but it's not in great detail and it doesn't get carried out.

Final book, a horse dies not from anything gory or brutal, but just from pushing so hard during a critical situation. Sort of a self-sacrifice situation.

If you choose to view the planets native inhabitants as animals then yes they get treated in a very Holocaust manner. I'd argue that they're not animals in the way that we commonly think of animals though, but yeah, it's fairly brutal.

In book one it's briefly threatened, but not acted upon, and not described in great detail either.

Perhaps not mutilation exactly, but there is a war accident that causes a prominent side character to go blind.

Most active torture is in book 2. The Spackle / The Land get tortured in a very concentration camp type of way. Human women all get infectious bands stuck on their arms suggesting they're being "reduced" to Spackle level. And as the other comment mentions, the villainous group referred to as "The Ask" torture people for information. If my memory serves me I think they do a water boarding sort of thing.

Someone blows themselves up in the third book, which I suppose counts as burning alive.

Book 1 there isn't a lot of detail about how it goes down, but yes, we're informed that one of the protagonists guardians is murdered. Both his birth parents are already dead as part of the given circumstances.
The other protagonist also has already dead parents and we know they died from a crash landing. If you read one of the anniversary prequel mini books, it goes into much greater detail about that.

In the third book there is the briefest mention of 2 male Land/Spackle characters washing each other, but that's about it I believe.

There are a few instances of harm technically caused to ones self, but I'd argue it's not really self-harm the way you think of it when you hear the term self-harm. It's not a recurring circumstance and it never has anything to do with personal or internal struggle. All instances I can remember are more so sacrifices made for war efforts and none are described in a particularly graphic manner.

While not touched upon in the book, Todd's adoptive fathers are in a romantic relationship, and one of them dies. He is not killed for being LGBT.

Not explicit sexual content, but one of the characters in the second book has a somewhat steamy vision of himself and Viola.

It ends with a main character mostly dead, though there is a note of hope that if the other continues calling to them, they'll return. It is revealed in a short story that the main character comes back.
