When, read the short story, we can know that the author wanted to say something to the readers. In this story, the author’s wanted to make the readers know that a dog (an animal) also had a heart, had a feeling. In this story the author described the feeling of the dog when the family did something bad to him well. The author can bring the readers as if the readers was the dog itself. So, in this case the author had been succes to bring that message to the readers.Well, when I read this story, actually at the first time I could be understand in meaning sense of the story. I could know that it was about the frienship relation between the dog and the child. But, to know about the detail of the story, I, as a nonexpert reader (not from native country) felt difficult to conceiv the story. The diction which the author chosen is difficult, because the words are uncommon. Maybe, because the story belongs to classic short story, so diction which used is complicated words and rich of lexis. Besides that, as told at first, the author liked using theme as fear, spiritual and isolation, the author had beend succes bring the readers to feel affraid and eerie ; in addition, the author didn’t clear to explain how close the child and the dog; thus, sense of closeness between the dog and the child was not enough to make the readers lachrymose. And so, the story will be better if there is dialog at least just one dialog, because it can make the story more life. It just my personal point of view who like existence of dialog. But, it is not the big problem, it just suggestion. Also, the style of Stephen Crane told about vivid, and the story also tells about the real live. The story can happened in our real live, particularly in America is very possible. Overall, the story is good and acceptable.
