[edit] Those poor dogs

Can anyone comment on the serious beating that the dogs take in this film? I've never seen a movie featuring so many dogs with broken necks, bloody faces, bullet wounds, etc. Does the writer hate dogs or what?

hmm i'm not sure what exactly you want people to comment on...but just so you know, no dogs were harmed in the making of the film. if the fact that he included such content bothers you...well, in my opinion he was trying to capture reality in mexico. Theconroy 21:29, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

You say, "no dogs were harmed in the making of the film." And your proof for this is where? --207.69.137.10 23:46, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

It's in the opening credits of the film. See Amoresperros Trivia from IMDb, third point. BaldAdonis 20:50, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

Also if anyone sees the DVD special effects, there is a section that talks about the dogs,(Los Perros de Amores Perros) and how they where specially trained dogs.They show exactly how they made the scenes happen so that none of the dogs are actually harmed in the making of the movie. For the dead dogs, dolls are used.Saltyseawater 12:28, 30 January 2007.

The popularity of the blood sport involving dogs is a practice in a number of countries, not only in South America but also in Asia as well. Its depiction in the film is about a slice of life in Mexico, where this illegal sport is a way for some people to have money, and also to portray violence, which is a essential theme of the film.
