Characteization
1 When he said thank you every time he killed something. 2When he is fixing the dog and caring for her.3When he is getting worried about his care free friends north from his camp.
I think they are important because it is showing that he cares for the stuff he doe like when he kills something he says thank you right after.
Dialogue
"Your such a tough dog ,I couldn't take this, I know you must have good genes, tough genes, A tough mother and father to take this .Pulling, pushing, and poking and just keep taking it and taking it"
"I have to hurt you," he said to the dog, petting her on the head. "I'm sorry, but we have to sew that up. I'll talk and tell you what I'm doing but if we don't sew it and cover it the flies will plant eggs in it..."All the time he was talking he was preparing himself, kneeling by the dog, threading the fish line through the needle in the fire light in itself no mean feat and hoping his talk would soothe the dog. "I'm going to clean the wound with a little water from the lake. He knew it wasn't hygienic but the wound was full of dirt and grass and the water was cleaner than that. He thought about boiling it but then we would have to wait for it to cool and that would take too long. The dog was steady now but might not hold for a long time.
