For example in the text it states,” That night she cried herself to sleep”. This shows how Dorris could not be strong when she lost the dog.

To add on, she knew that her parents couldn't afford a dog, but she still took care of it and she still gave the dog company. As stated in the text, "Doris trudged through the yard, went up the shoveled driveway and met the dog. "Come on pooch." This shows that Doris saw the dog and decided to do something good and help the dog. Furthermore, the text says, "...Mrs. Lacey grudgingly let Doris feed it table scraps." This shows that she took care of the dog by giving it table scraps. I can conclude that I think that it was a good idea for them to keep the dog. ]]> 2020-05-05 13:50:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/552119961 https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/552121474 2020-05-05 13:50:40 UTC https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/552121474 https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/552124311 i think that Doris is weak she ]]> 2020-05-05 13:51:36 UTC https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/552124311 https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/552132774 i think doris is weak because she cried.

This shows that she is weak in the passage.

For example, she saved a stray dog. Another example is because she stood up for what she wanted in front of her parents that did not want the puppy. As stated in the text, "She wanted not to face her parents. But she finally rose up heavily." In conclusion, she is strong for facing her parents of her decision.

In the text it says "Daddy," she whispered. "please". She is also weak because she can't do anything to keep the dog.

As stated in the text, " Her parents were sitting at the table, dinner over, drinking coffee. They looked at her when she came in, but she kept her head down. No one spoke. Doris made herself a glass of powdered milk and drank it all down. Then she picked up a cold biscuit and started out of the room. “You’d better feed that mutt before it dies of starvation,” Mr. Lacey said. Doris turned around. “What?” “I said, you’d better feed your dog. I figure it’s looking for you.” Doris put her hand to her mouth. “You didn’t take her?” she asked". Also, “Oh, I took her all right.” her father answered. “Worst looking place I’ve ever seen. Ten dogs to a cage. Smell was enough to knock you down. And they give an animal six days to live. Then they kill it with some kind of a shot.” Doris stared at her father. “l wouldn’t leave an ant in that place,” he said. “So I brought the dog back.” Mrs. Lacey was smiling at him and shaking her head as if she would never, ever, understand him. Mr. Lacey sipped his coffee. “Well,” he said, “are you going to feed it or not?”.  that is why i think that Doris is strong.]]> 2020-05-05 19:28:17 UTC https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/553077325 https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/553310642 I think Doris is strong.  She took the puppy in when no one else would.  She cared for the puppy even though she knew her parents would not let her keep it.  The text says, “Even after a week had gone by, Doris did not name the dog, she knew her parents wouldn’t let her keep it, that her father made so little money any pets were out of the question, and that the pup would definitely go to the pound when the weather cleared”.  Doris put the puppy before herself even though she knew she could lose it.  This shows her strength of character, and love for the puppy.  There is nothing stronger than love.]]> 2020-05-05 21:37:00 UTC https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/553310642 https://padlet.com/lalshefski/StrayArgument/wish/553504665 I think Dorris is strong because it says in the text "Doris hugged the puppy hard against her." she is also strong because "She cried herself to sleep, and her dreams were full of searching and searching for lost things."
