Seriously, what genre?
Horror would be more acceptable than romance. Why are we shooting the dog? Should we tie up the owner instead?
Why does the genre matter? Aside from books for very young children, it is difficult to think of a genre that doesn't kill people as a matter of course. So why do animals get special treatment?

(I'm guilty of the special treatment too, but I do find it an interesting phenomena.)
