Keys don't disappear once they are used. You may have already used it and don't need it anymore however it is really impossible to know for sure. Conveniently they weigh next to nothing so this is really a non issue.

Any character can use a key and if you click on a door/chest/area etc that requries a key and you have it, the key will be used automatically even if it is in another persons bag/inventory.

After you open all the doors and chests in Fort Joy just dro[p the keys so they don't clutter the inventory.

There is a mission which a dog ask you to save another dog which I think is turned into a mouse or sth, so I get the key from it and get underground near the big god statue to the room holding the dog but I cannot open it.

In fact I cannot open any locked door with 5 keys in my bags, so do I need to interact the key with the door or just click into area and the character will unlock the door automatically?

Or am I just too dump for a video game ;-;

To use a key just click on the door and the appropriate key in inventory should open it. Buddy's key opens the area where the hounds are kept and trained. Emmie is one of the dogs but is not saveable. Keys specific to the tutorial: greasy key, skull key, etc. can be dropped once on land.

Keys will teleport to the inventory of the one needing it and will be used automatically if needed.

Sounds to me like the door you found wasn't one that a key unlocks, but rather its opened by a lever hiding in the bushes near the door. However, you can also just break the door down. Just don't use melee to do it unless you plan to repair your weapon. Weapons only take damage if used outside combat like that. Ranged weapons don't though.

If you do make a mistake and ruin a melee weapon trying to open a door, you can use a repair hammer to fix it.
