All dogs were formed differently and for separate reasons; whether it be for their looks or for their personal attributes, the dog has been evolved around humans and yet many breeds were created by humans themselves. I also believe that having a dog is a necessity to having a balanced life, just how Cesar Millan was quoted on the Brainy Quote web page “The dog can only become what's in your bubble. The dog is imitating the energy that is in your bubble. You are the source, the feast of energy. If you feel anxious, the dog becomes anxious with you.

The Author is suggesting to the readers via symbolism, of a once healthy relationship between the couple has been blighted somehow. as we can see from the author’s apparent use of lighting that plays a significant part in the setting of this story.

The Heart of a Dog, by Mikhail Bulgakov is a satiric novel about an experiment on a dog named Sharik, in which they give him human organs, transforming him into a human. The whole novel goes through the metamorphosis of the dog, Sharik, becoming a “human” who can think and act for himself in being able to make humanlike decisions, to his downfall and becoming a dog again. The plot of this satire is just an allegory on the communist revolution of the early 1900’s, which is why it is considered to be a satire. There are many ways in which Bulgakov mocks the Russian society of the 1920’s, one being that the Communist leaders of the time attempted to make a “new Communist man,” which is linked to the creation of Sharikov from Sharik. Under the same idea, Bulgakov is also mocking the idea that Communist Russia believed that they could improve the genetic quality of their population, which is what Dr. Preobrazhensky and Bormenthal attempted to do using Sharik. There are many allegories spread out throughout this satire made to mock Communist Russia of the 1920’s and to point out all of it defects.
