Summary Of Missing Pup '

The dogs passing could be seen as a metaphor for the Beth leaving her husband on his own to provide for himself, to take care of any possessions she may have had, and to fight his depression alone. The main character is now having feelings of loneliness and depression. The first paragraph states that "inside is warm", and "outside is cold", This could be tied as symbolism of the fact that he is secluding himself from the world. When the dog passed away the main character said that "it's not my dog, but it's my responsibility", this can make the reader think of all of the other responsibilities that the main character was left with. There are definitely some parallels between the dog and Beth. They both end up being burdens on the main character and leaving behind more for him to deal with. After the dog passes away the main character says "the blood on the carpet of the car is out of sight, and I will pretend it isn’t there. And then there's the touch." The touch can be seen as how the dog emotionally affected him by passing away. The dog did bring sadness to the main characters life due to the memories the main character seemed to have when he interacted with the dog. "I watched my hand volunteer itself and run its finger through the nap of his head". The way this sentence is put together makes it sound as if his caring for the dog was an involuntary action.

Mathew had never had a dog and feared that if he had an episode, that he would hurt Frits.

First you have to do the worst part of raising a puppy, which is to teach them to not use the bathroom in the house. The reason why it is so hard is because you have to teach them not to do it. Then you also have to teach them to give you a sign that means they need to use the bathroom. Sometimes it is hard because if you take them outside and it feels good to them, they will run off, you have to chase them, pick them up, and take them inside the house. Finally,they are hard because if there is snow and they roll in it and run inside the house and get snow everywhere, then you have to vacuum or sweep it all up.

Dog’s Death by John Updike really touched me when I read it for the first time. His use of imagery in this poem is very touching. He makes the reader relate to the death of the dog by showing through his words the emotions of what the dog is going through as well as what his owners are feeling. This paper will show how I think the author was trying to use imagery to show the love between the dog and his owners.
