History YMMV / LadyAndTheTramp

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: Aunt Sarah insisting only cats should be left with babies. Leave it to Lady to prove she can. Now here's some real-talk: If you pay any remote attention to the news, one ''should'' be careful about leaving a baby or young child unattended around a pet. Doesn't matter how well trained you think they are, or if they're not a dangerous breed, animals can get jealous of the attention the newborn gets (or, just as dangerous, misguidedly treat the infant as one of their own young) and, intentionally or not, hurt them. Cats can suffocate a baby unintentionally by laying on them, and dogs might just ''attack'' them out of the blue even if the dog normally acts gentle, or try and pick it up like it's a toy or it's own baby.
* GodNeverSaidThat: No sources can be found stating that the three dogs were attempting to rape Lady or that Lady became pregnant after her night with Tramp; the latter is impossible because she would have gotten pregnant in the spring, yet she had the puppies shortly before Christmas.

* CatharsisFactor: After an entire film of Aunt Sarah misunderstanding and vilifying Lady's behaviour, when Jim and Elizabeth finally return and release their dog, she once again freaks out about the dog being on the loose and being a threat to the baby. Jim tells her [[TakeThatScrappy she's speaking nonsense]] and deduces (correctly) that Lady is trying to tell them something important (that Tramp saved the baby's life by killing the rat).

* EthnicScrappy: The infamous Siamese Cat duo. On top of being, of course, villains, their EthnicScrappy status manifests itself in their buck teeth and the annoyingly terrible grammar during their song.
* FairForItsDay:
** The ethnic stereotypes personified in animals, the cats in particular.
** Luigi and Joe are a couple of over-the-top Italian stereotypes who are far more exaggerated and prominent than the cats, but objections to them are far more rare.

* DesignatedVillain: The dog catcher is perhaps the least evil of the BigBadEnsemble; his job is to find dogs and put them in his pound to await pickup, but the film generally portrays him as antagonistic for this, particularly when he agrees to have Tramp put to sleep. Also, though she may be particularly harsh towards Lady and the Tramp, Aunt Sarah does what she does out of concern for others, particularly for her cats (who get Lady muzzled with a WoundedGazelleGambit) and for Darling's child. Plus, [[BerserkButton she hates runaways (and also, it would seem, strays)]], to the point of chaining Lady to the backyard doghouse to teach her a lesson, and around the time she arranges for Tramp's euthanasia, she's only aware of two things as far as the surrounding circumstances were concerned: one, that the child's life was in danger, and two, that two dogs, one of them a stray, were at the scene.

* GodNeverSaidThat: No sources to be found (nothing I can find) stating that the three dogs were attempting to rape Lady or that Lady became pregnant after her night with Tramp; the latter is impossible because she would have gotten pregnant in the spring, yet she had the puppies shortly before Christmas.

** Si and Am, the two Siamese cats Aunt Sarah brings, pretty much only appear in their introduction and yet that one scene is one the film's most known. [[WolverinePublicity They also appear on the cover of the VHS release]].

* {{Narm}}: When the rat is bitten by Tramp the first time, it squeaks like a ''chew toy''. (It squeaks normally every other time, not even close to narmy.)

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The restaurant scene. While memorable, it is surreal.

* {{Woolseyism}}: When Lady is upset about Jim Dear having referred to her as "that dog", the word they use the Norwegian dub is more of a slang word for dog ("bikkja") making her shock even more understandable.

* {{Squick}}: As the entry on the "GiveTheBabyAFather" page mentioned, it's possible the scene where Lady is being chased by the dogs is caused by her being in heat, as later on she spends a night alone with Tramp, and Jock and Trusty discuss [[HonorableMarriageProposal marrying her to preserve her honour]].

** Aunt Sarah, especially to people who aren't dog lovers. It's possible she's just prejudiced against dogs and doesn't like them. It's also possible she didn't want to allow ''any'' animals near the baby, since she did leave her cats downstairs. Though many would still call it an overreaction to see a small family dog wagging its tail and angrily chase it out of the room as if it was a rodent.

* FamilyUnfriendlyAesop: Aunt Sarah insisting only cats should be left with babies. Leave it to Lady to prove she can. Now here's some real-talk: If you pay any remote attention to the news, '''no baby or young child should ever be left unattended around animals'''. NOT EVER. Doesn't matter how well trained you think they are, or if they're not a dangerous breed, animals can get jealous of the attention the newborn gets and hurt them.

** The rat gets this too, to a much lesser extent. Was it truly trying to kill the baby, or was it only focused on using the house as a shelter?

* VillainHasAPoint: Aunt Sarah putting a muzzle on Lady. It's generally not a good idea to allow dogs near newborn children and Aunt Sarah believed Lady was violent and destructive. She was doing what she thought was best for the safety of her nephew. That said, she also somehow thought leaving two cats around unmonitored in the presence of a dog and baby [[WhatAnIdiot would be safe]].
