• What is the role of Dog Lady?

The dog lady plays a roll of an owner of a dead dog and she spends her money, trying to keep her dead dog alive again. Fixing it by giving it to Keeper who sees and makes pets or stuffed animals look real. However the Dog lady doesn’t see her pet as a pet, she doesn’t want to admit that she became close to the pet so her husband killed her with food poison. She even knows her genre and she shows affection for the dog even if she lies about it. I believe it’s another world, they leave in a fantasy we’re they want to believe that all the animals are meant to be as if they were status. Killing them to make money out of it. I also think it can relate to our world because when people uses animals, they take something out of it. Sells them to get their profit. Keeper doesn’t like pets because they are pets, they leave with someone and he believes that dogs or cats shouldn’t be stuffed. he prefers animals like bears or armadillos. Kid is confused, he doesn’t really know where he belongs, he doesn’t have like a memory. He just believes that he comes from pits since he last remember dark and pits. He doesn’t really know if the kid is a he/she because he is confused on the meaning of each genre. In scene 4, the dog lady gives a description to him, and also makes him feel special since he believes that he doesn’t feel loved. I was surprised that Keeper died because it seems that he was a main character, since he tells the kid what to do, since he has a shop and sews. He talked like a boss, he is stubborn and he knew how to deal with his stuffed animals but apparently he died by the bear.
