No, there is no abandonment. The mother had a rough childhood with strict, unfeeling parents shown in flashbacks about her childhood dog, but there's no abandonment, abuse or neglect.

No. I have been a victim of gaslighting and domestic violence. Take my word for it: there is no gaslighting in this film.

the mother is shown to have a strained relationship with her parents as a child. when her dog dies, her parents are dismissive and her mother tells her to cheer up. this is shown to have a traumatic impact on her character. i would consider this to be emotional abuse.

the dog is made to wear an electric collar. he is zapped once and the collar is not used again. the mother’s childhood dog is also made to sleep outside in the snow, but he is allowed inside and he is given a blanket.

No but Fielding does what he describes as “breathing exercises” that, to me, sounded like he was struggling to breathe at first.

Police are frequently portrayed in an unrealistic positive light, hallmark of the christowhitsupremacy of the films genre.

Fielding is in the hospital at the end of the movie but it’s nothing sad or triggering SPOILERS: his parents bring Gonker to him in the hospital and it’s a happy scene

the dog, gonker, runs off and is lost for a long duration of the movie. i wouldn’t consider this triggering due to the fact that the subject is non human.
