Answer 2

b.)Subject: A little dog is taken into an abusive home.

d.)Theme: Those who are abused learn to abuse the weak.

We know the dog is taken into an abusive home because in the passage it says the father "came home and held carnival with the cooking utensils, the furniture and his wife." It goes on to tell how when the boy and dog came home the father "knocked the dog down with a heavy coffee-pot". We also see the theme of "those who are abused learn to abuse the weak" when the son of the abusive father hits the dog repeatedly.
