What are the easily missed details of "Isle of Dogs"?

The more political detail I noticed was that the little boy hugged a little puppy and fed it himself, a bit like Napoleon in "Animal Farm" who privately raised a puppy to train the army, this is the real tameness.

Chef, I think he was moved by the little boy, or developed feelings in getting along, and regarded the little boy as a friend. But the little boy wanted to tame him. From the beginning, let him pick up sticks, then bathe him, feed him biscuits, and finally say "Now, you are a dog."

If you are tamed because you admit that the other party is stronger than you, and lower yourself to meet the other party's requirements, then chef is obviously not - I go to pick up sticks because I pity you. This is not arrogance. Because chef didn't wag his tail for encouragement like a normal pug, he just did it quietly. This is because of love.
