In the book, Of Mice and Men, a new crude character, Curley was introduced. On page 37, I noticed foreshadowing from Curley and Candy's dogs relationship. The dog peacefully "sniffed, and then lay down and put his head between his paws. Curley popped into the doorway... The dog raised his head, but when Curley jerked out... head sank to the floor again" (37) This clearly shows that the dog felt alarmed around Curley which could mean he is not the most trust-worthy friend to have around. Dogs can sense fear and danger which I think is why the dog was startled near Curley. Also, earlier in the book, George states to Lennie, "You gonna have trouble with the Curley guy. I seen that kind before. He was kinda feelin' you out" (29). This shows that George is also as suspicious as the dog towards Curley. These examples lead me to believe that in the next upcoming chapters, Curley, George, and Lennie, will have some tough situations.
