Photo 7: The photo on the left is a picture of my dog Sashi, a Yorkie. The picture on the right is a picture I took of a man walking his Chocolate Lab.
Sociological Perspective: We talked during our first class about what dog size says about class and status. Dogs can be a status symbol not just based on their size. Typically the size of a dog should denote the size of the house you live in. The bigger the dog the bigger the house. I have lived in apartments and know that people have big dogs in apartments. I also think it is important to note that the breed of dog is important. Yorkshire terriers are very expensive dogs and therefore I don't see them that often. People really do think they are so adorable though. Yorkies I think are a status symbol and say a lot about class as well. I think that Labs as well as Golden Retrievers as typical family dogs and are associated with families.
