'Show Dogs' to remove scenes after accusations that movie 'grooms children for sexual abuse'
Idaho Statesman ^ | 5/23/18 | KATE FELDMAN

NEW YORK - "Show Dogs" is making some edits after allegations that the kids movie promoted a harmful message about sexual abuse.

"Responding to concerns raised by moviegoers and some specific organizations, Global Road Entertainment has decided to remove two scenes from the film 'Show Dogs' that some have deemed not appropriate for children," the distribution company said in a statement to the Daily News Wednesday.

**SNIP**

"Show Dogs," starring Will Arnett, Ludacris, Natasha Lyonne, Jordin Sparks, Gabriel Iglesias, Alan Cumming and Stanley Tucci, features a minor plot about Max, the Rottweiler police dog who goes undercover at a dog show, learning to undergo an exam of his genitals by going to a "zen place."

The National Center on Sexual Exploitation said the movie "grooms children for sexual abuse."

And then our high school graduates can’t do Fifth Grade Math. Stick to the basics, people, and don’t let the childless Left educate your children.

These Hollywood vermin are vile. Their industry does not deserve to be supported.

Take a minute and just ponder that the WRITERS actually sat down and wrote the script that made fondling of the dogs penis and scrotum such a big thing in order to get to the finals to “save the day!” Liberalism constantly preaches the end result is all that matters , pay no attention to the carnage it leaves in its wake . Godlessness is so easily recognized and it is one of the pillars the left runs on to further decimate and divide this great republic.

I’d find it funny if it was an over 18 only movie. Obviously it’s not. Idiots. When I had a catheter put in, I wish I had a zen place at that time :-)

Do I think this scene would destroy a kid’s mind.? No. But it’s just a stupid move

Is that what dog show judges do? Do they have to? Why is that even necessary?

I didn’t see it from beginning to end, but ‘Best in Show’ was a funny movie. If there was a…’dog wrangling’…scene, I missed it.

I took my grandkids to see this movie yesterday. I didn’t connect that part to child abuse, but I’m not always looking for things like that.

Doctor asked me, “Please stop screaming, you’re frightening
the other patients”.

It sends the message to kids that “touching” is OK as long as there’s a good reason (other than in a medical setting).

My point was that I saw the movie and I didn’t get that message until I read this post. I’m sure not going to talk to the grandkids about it because odds are they didn’t get that message either, and I wouldn’t want to give them any ideas.
I saw where they’re also trying to take the part out of “Sleeping Beauty” where the Prince kisses her, because she was sleeping and didn’t give permission.

Dog show judges *briefly* reach down to ensure that both testicles have descended. A non descended testicle immediately disqualifies the dog from showing as he is unsuitable for breeding.

The judge does *not* fondle the dog. They learn to do this quickly and virtually unnoticed as they are not fond of being bitten.

My understanding of the movie’s message is that kids learn that wonderful things will happen if you just relax and let strangers handle your private parts.

I disagree....to be apathetic about what they show in this cartoon is LGQBT friendly B.S. my emphasis on Q . You think what you will but just like anything evil it comes in drips and portrays itself as innocent and not worthy of notice . Hmmph go to your “zen” place .

If parents are stupid enough not to read up on what they are taking their kids to see then they deserve it.

As for adults, it’s their business what they see.

I must still disagree that this is relatively harmful. Silly, yes. Haemful. I don’t see it

Same thing happened to me when the doctor punched a needle into my sinus and pumped fluid in under pressure. No anesthetic. When he told me to stop screaming for fear of frightening the other patients, I told him they needed to be warned.
