Analyzing Jaren's 'Poetry Appreciation For Dogs'

Poetry for Dogs

The story "Poetry appreciation for dogs" is about a dog called Scout, a young boy named Jaren who is creating a poem, and his parent who tells the story in first person . He had read the words as he wrote them. "Tree, tree, tree ... mountain, mountain, mountain ..." The words he spoked caught his dog's, Scout, attention. The dog started to react to the words that were said. For example, when Jaren had said, "Bird, bird, bird ..." Scout had lifter her head and looked around, sniffing. Next, Jaren had said "Deer, deer, deer ..." In result, Scout had sprang to her feet with her ears up, and woofed. In my opinion, Scout was had learned these words, and learned to react to them. She understands the words, as well as their meanings.
