Neither dog deaths are shown. The first one we see the already dead dog’s body with a bbq fork sticking from the neck (it’s not a malicious or cruel reason), & the second is heard (I just mute the tv because the sound is terrible).

The father gets upset and yells at his children briefly during a family dinner scene, but it's more because of stress than malevolence and it passes quickly.
