Argos (Dog)
Symbloism- Argos is the symbol of loyality to Odysseus by waiting for him when he gets back and he knows Odysseus, because of th sound of his voice so it hsows respect when Argos got up to see Odysseus.
Epithet-Treated as rubbish now he lay at last upon a mess of dung before before the gates.
Plot- Telemachus returns to his mother, and afterwards Odysseus and, the swineherd go down to the great house. The old hound Argos hears his master's voice and he dropped his ears and did his best to wag his tail; he is the first who knows Odysseus. Having successed his destiny of faith by laying his eyes upon his master once more, he released a final whimper and died. Then Odysseus enters the hall, and the suitors treat him rudely.
