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

Thankfully, no dogs are pitted against each other for sport, though the protagonists more often than not have to engage in melee combat with one or more aggressive entities-- sometimes other dogs.

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.
