* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: The film, like ''WesternAnimation/WatershipDown'' before it -- which is actually tame and kid-friendly in comparison to ''The Plague Dogs'' -- this is mistaken for a kid's movie with shocking frequency (not helped by the case of MisaimedMarketing). The film deals with bleak, mature themes such as animal experimentation, the psychological ramifications of such on the protagonists, and features plentiful amounts of graphic violence, swearing, and a depressing DownerEnding -- which wasn't even in the original book -- to top it off. A children's film this is not.

** The animation, in a feat of {{Grimmification}}, decides just to stick the realistically bleak ending, and ends with the dogs [[DownerEnding about to drown]] but [[HopeSpringsEternal with a shot of an island nearby during the credits.]]]] It helps that the director only had his hands on the original draft of the story before Richard Adams was asked to change it.
