The baby puppy is born and its soft fur makes it impossible for anyone to not love it. In the short novella, Of Mice and Men, Steinbeck uses many comparisons between animals and humans to not only foreshadow events in the book but also to show similarities between the animal food chain and the working class in America. Every character in the novella is fighting his way up the “food chain” in order to achieve the American dream, just as the animals Steinbeck refers to are struggling to survive.

When his dog dies, Candy realizes the significance of his aging and what it means for his spot on the food chain.When Candy realizes where his life is starting to go he says, “Then—it’s all off?" Candy asked sulkily. George didn’t answer his question.
