Answer:

Katherine Paterson’s “The Last Dog” follows the teenage Brock on his journey into the world outside the dome, an dystopian earth. While in the dome, Brock was taught that there was no life outside of the dome. This thought is contradicted, however, when Brock discovers an earth that highly resembles today’s earth. This earth contains plants, water, and some organisms, such as dogs. The world outside the dome is very different than the world inside the dome. The world inside the dome is different from the world outside the dome because of the live contained in both and the resources available. The world inside the dome does have some similarities to the world outside the dome, however. Both the world inside and outside the dome contain water, and they both contain air.

Answer:

The Last Dog is a documentary about a man named Peter who is in his seventies. His dog has just died and he decides he will never own another dog in his lifetime. However, a friend takes him to view a litter of Saint Bernard puppies. He falls in love with one of them and names the puppy Hawthorn.

One conflict that Brock faces is whether or not to allow the scientists to perform tests on Brog. This is a difficult choice for Brock to make because in order to save Brog, he must leave the only life that he has ever known. However, he has come to love the dog, and cannot imagine allowing the scientists to kill him.

Then the scientist were worried that Brock might have rabies after when Brog bit Brock. So the scientist kicked out Brock and Brog outside of the dome.
