The dog was called *beep* Deal with it.
It's a historical movie. The death of his dog just before the raid really upset him. The dog is important to the story. It had a name.
Its not just someone making it up to be controversial.

If they make a story of Arnold Schwarzenegger life will they rename him as his name is german for Black *beep*

If US forces weren't racially segregated at the time of the raid, and the Pentagon didn't have twice as many restrooms as it needed because of segregation, maybe our US friends wouldn't concentrate so much on the name of a dog.

With all the furore about the dog's name, let's hope that no-one decided to make a film of Conrad's novel The *beep* of the Narcissus. (Wonder if this will be censored?)

Yes, it was (sigh).
