What happened to the dog in John Wick 3?
The dog in John Wick 3, Daisy, died in a house invasion by Iosef Tarrasov.
John Wick received Daisy as a gift from his wife, Helen, shortly after she died. John became furious when Daisy died in a house invasion by Iosef Tarrasov. He then returned to his childhood home.
This is Daisy, a small but important character in the John Wick films. She is first introduced in John Wick: Chapter 2, when John Wick receives her as a gift from his wife, Helen. Shortly after receiving Daisy, Helen is killed by Iosef Tarrasov, triggering John’s vengeance quest that makes up the rest of the film.
While Daisy isn’t seen again after John’s initial meeting with her, she plays an important role in John’s character development. First, she represents John’s last connection to his wife. After she’s gone, he has nothing left to lose – which makes him even more dangerous to his enemies. Second, her death motivates John to return to his old life as an assassin. Up until that point, he’d been trying to leave that life behind him. But with Daisy gone, he has nothing left to lose – so he might as well go back to what he knows best.
Ultimately, Daisy serves as a symbol of both John’s love for his wife and his lethal efficiency as an assassin. She may be gone, but she definitely left her mark on the films – and on John Wick himself.

Why did they kill John Wick’s dog?
As far as he was concerned, some guy wouldn’t sell him the car he wanted, so he beat the guy up and took it. The guy also mildly embarrassed him in front of his friends, so he overreacted by killing the guy’s dog.
Keanu Reeves On The John Wick Dog Death
John Wick directors almost had to lose dog murder scene, but fought hard to keep it.
Two things everyone knows about John Wick. Hes the assassin you call when you want to take out other master assassins, and hurting his dog is akin to signing your own death warrant. The entire franchise centering about the character started because the villain in the first movie killed Wicks dog. But as the films screenwriter Derek Kolstad revealed in a recent interview, that particular plot point was almost entirely cut out by a nervous studio.
The killing of Wicks dog had always been a part of the script, but over time it grew into such a major moment that the studio was afraid the scene would not play well with audiences. But for the films creators, the death of the dog was an essential aspect of Wicks personal journey over the course of the film.
Despite the insistence of the films directors Chad Stahelski and David Leitch, studio execs remained worried about the scene up until the time of the very first screening of the finished movie before an audience. Watching the reaction of the crowd to the scene confirmed that the makers had made the right call in keeping the dog angle in the narrative.
Wicks relationship with his dog and his wife are the very few instances that the master assassin shows aspects to his character other than rage and vengeance. They serve to ground what would otherwise be an unstoppable killing machine in the finer emotions of love and regret which makes audiences root for him when he launches his vendetta against the entire criminal underworld. Fans can watch Wick continue on his mission with the next John Wick film, whose script is currently being written. This comes from ComicBook.com.
