The scene when the dog urinates on Todd is obviously edited, as the dog starts to raise its rear leg there is a fade-to-black and a second or two of black screen, like a commercial break on a TV show DVD.
If not “Edited for Wal-Mart”, then the producers of this film have edited it for the DVD presentation, which is not all that uncommon these days. Perhaps they realized the kid appeal of this film, and took out two scenes that parents were upset about ??? Am I the only person here who noticed these missing scenes ?!?!?!?

Yep, chalk me into the bullshit category. I purchased Braveheart at Wally. 3 hours of Scottish blood and a bit of nudity - with a torture scene at the end of the film. No edits there.
