My video
- The video was about different dogs and different people. The video was about like some little kids and their parents wanted to carry their child but the dog kept on barking and did not let the parents touch the little kids or sometimes the dogs were protecting their adult master. This relates to sounder and his master because in the book sounder and his master like to spend time together and they protect each other. In the video the different dogs that showed kept on barking at the person who wanted to touch their master. In the video the dog would not stop barking until it saw that it’s master was ok.
