He begins to realize the enormity of what has happened, “Here was neither peace, nor rest, nor a moments safety. All was confusion and action, and every moment life and limb were in peril. There was imperative need to be constantly alert; for these dogs and men were not town dogs and men. They were savages, all of them, who knew no law but the law of club and fang” Chapter 2, pg. 18. Rather than respecting each other, these dogs know only to defend themselves against each other by violence, or to feel the beat of a humans club or whip when they do not behave properly. These dogs are tamed by feeling violence, and if they were too weak to survive these incidents, then they were killed. The sled dogs are resting outside in the snow after waking up, and a violent incident occurs.
Buck watches one day as Curly playfully approached one of the other sled dogs, a large husky, and in reaction the dog lashes out violently with its teeth, ripping open Curlys skull. The other dogs fly in for the kill, surrounding the poor dog in a whirlwind of teeth and claws, craving blood and death. Buck stares on in horror as it takes far too long for Perrault and Francois to get into the middle of the mix and beat these dogs away, revealing Curlys torn and bloody carcass gleaming against the white snow. Spitz merely watches this incident occur from afar and appears to be laughing for some reason, letting his tongue hang out in a mocking manner, causing Buck to feel the utmost hatred towards him from that point on. Buck is disgusted that Curly was just trying to be friendly and she was attacked for this, whereas Spitz seems to find the whole situation to be funny. Spitz is a much more experienced sled dog than Buck, so perhaps he is more accustomed to seeing these types

In a later scene in “The Secret Life of Pets,” Spitz is in pain, suffering from a broken jaw and his wife’s “gaze paralysis,” with Spitz’s mouth wide open in horror, as Lorne Blomkamp takes his wife to the dentist so he can begin to get her back on his feet. Spitz is clearly annoyed by the dentist’s visit and he continues to watch from afar, muttering about what happened, watching the incident unfold while his eyes are still black and his throat hurt. The scene ends with Spitz holding his wife’s throat for some time until she coughs, but when the dentist’s attention is focused on her, he is completely gone quickly, leaving Blomkamp to watch, watching the scene unfold as the scene unfolds.
The other, more familiar dog, The Penguin was a mix of Spitz, The Hound and, more recently, The Penguin. Spitz and The Huntsman were both named after The Penguin’s owner, who used to take the Penguin around to keep the little pups together, but for the next few minutes they shared a bed. The couple used multiple bowls and large bowls of food every day while the Penguin ate. Each day for the next few months, Spitz, The Hound and The Penguin were staying with another friend to help out with their day care chores.
Eventually, Spitz and The Hound decided to take a shower once the snow started to set. Spitz, being a much darker character, had some of the most fur and coldest winters in all of Marvel history, and the bath time got more cold since then. “It had to be the longest day of my life as my little ones were going to go to bed,” Spitz tells his wife in a subsequent scene in the movie as she is about to go wash her hands. The scene doesn’t end there either, as a shot of The Hound’s hair getting matted by the bathtub at Spitz’s feet is featured when Spitz takes part in a battle with the Penguin’s teeth.
In “The Secret Life of Pets,” he has a strange reaction to getting to the dentist, which makes it very hard for him to stay in his chair and watch the moment unfold despite the fact that his wife is now at home and is being kept near the table as well. The only way the dentist could have told Spitz that his face was in pain when he came to visit that day was that his dog has gotten a little wet. When the Dentist told Spitz not to give up on his job immediately, Spitz tells Lorne that when the dentist asks for a treat before he takes the dental exam to get rid of the gum and get him to have a new nose — as the dentist’s dog usually doesn’t mind it if his dog rubs his mouth on any of his teeth. The dentist does not know that his dog is feeling threatened by his teeth because he was in it for four months before being fed.

With Toothpaste in view, Spitz starts to get really uncomfortable as he tries to decide what he should be enjoying and how he likes it from the dentist, as he feels that it probably has the best toothpaste for him as you can see in the cuteness of the “Worth of Every Bite” scene. As the couple turns out to be in the process of removing their dental implants, Spitz begins to feel sick as his body starts to ache uncontrollably because the dentist’s pain and heat have taken over him forever.
