The dog owned by the characters during the "Spring" episode comes to no onscreen harm. However, it can be assumed that the dog has passed on during the time jump between "Spring" and "Summer".

The older monk beats the younger monk repeatedly with a large stick. The next scene shows the younger monk bound and hanging from the ceiling.

A kid ties rocks to animals (fish, frog, snake) for his entertainment, the film shows the animals struggling, eventually resulting in two of them found dead (also showed).

A carried living cat's tail is used to paint Chinese characters on a wooden floor.

A kid introduces tiny rocks in the mouth of animals, again for his entertainment (again a fish, frog and a snake). Again there are takes showing the animals' struggle.

I don't know why people voted no. A woman is groped twice without her consent, including while she is sleeping.
