    Hi Brenda, I can understand how we would see different views of Dog because I actually re-read this short narrative plenty of times before coming up with a response. Admittedly, I was confused. At first, I didn’t understand why Richard would jump from one part of the story to another, I couldn’t really grasp the connectors. From my past history, I believe taking care of older dogs are more work than puppies and also heart breaking when they do fall ill and possibly die. If the Devereaux’s household was a “no dog zone”, why not tell William that and ask him if there is anther animal that he has in mind that is low maintenance such as a Guinea Pig? I also agree that the screen door was a big connector to the story, because I feel as if, William…
