While the members of the Wise Dog society itself are safe (so far), the series routinely shows dead, ghostly, and/or zombified dogs.

Not inherently sexual, but in Issue #2: The Unfamiliar, a supernatural being with a humanoid body appears, sporting a pair of bare breasts. The naked figure appears again in Issue #14: What the Cat Dragged in. Later, in Issue #10: Food Run, a goblin-like critter is featured that bears a tiny intact penis. All of it rather harmless though.

Fire spells are a staple of the series, and are often used in fight sequences. In addition, "The View From The Hill" focuses on a herd of sheep who died in a fire.

In Issue #6: Lost, not only are several young animals' corpses shown, but the human teen that abducts, tortures, mutilates, and eventually drowns the infant pets is killed by the protagonists. (As he deserved.) In Issue #14: What the Cat Dragged in, a cat's adolescent children pass away while dissipating into skeletons after being freed from a curse keeping them alive.

In Issue #6: Lost, a mother dog who discovered several deceased young animals-- including her own pups-- commits suicide by plunging herself into the waters to be with them and provide their spirits the motherly comfort that was stolen from them.

While the Wise Dogs always succeed in protecting Burden Hill, the endings of individual stories tend to lean more towards bittersweet.

Many humans are armed throughout the series. Bullets are fired at both humans and animals.
