Worthy of note: critics have noted that one plot point in this film is reminiscent of child sexual abuse/grooming techniques, although the scenes themselves are not sexual. The main character (a dog) is new to competing in dog shows and needs to learn the process so his partner and a former show champion work to get him ready for the final round of the competition. It becomes apparent that during the finals, the main character's genitals will be inspected. The main character's partner touches the main character's genitals to get him used to this, and the main character is so uncomfortable that he snaps at his partner. His partner and the former champion tell him that he needs to go to his 'zen place' when it happens in order to get through it. His partner attempts to inspect his private parts a number of times, and each time he snaps out of discomfort. On the day of the finals, it is clear that if the main character does not let his genitals be touched he will lose the competition. During the competition, the judge's hand reaches behind him and the main character goes to his 'zen place' as his genitals are inspected. One of the film's writers announced via Twitter that the film would be re-cut without this plot point, so some versions may potentially not include it.
