"I watched in wonder as a talking guide dog was asked for directions by a man who treated him more like a person than he did his owner. As any guide dog owner will tell you, many of them, unfortunately, experience this often in real life. Few of them find it funny.

In the very next scene, I held back screams as we were introduced to a (thankfully) fictional charity called the Guide Dwarves Association. I watched as a real person who really has dwarfism was led around on a lead as a blind person carried a charity box, complete with encouraging comments like ‘good dwarf’ in the tone all dog owners use to their pets. So, a dog was being treated like a person, while a disabled person was treated like a dog. Again, all that will do to stereotypes is reinforce them. To me, it’s about as funny as spoiled milk."
