I don't speak the language, but my guess is that the Portuguese equivalent of "beating a dead horse" uses a dog instead?
in pt-br: chutando cachorro morto
literal translation: beating a dead dog
in pt-pt: bater no ceguinho
literal translation: beating the little blind person
Yup you guessed it right.
