Train Dogs

Train Dogs

by E. Pauline Johnson

This collection of poems by E. Pauline Johnson, known for her celebration of First Nations heritage, explores the relationship between humans and animals, particularly the wild dogs used for training in the Canadian wilderness. The poems delve into themes of nature, domestication, the struggle for survival, and the complexities of human connection with the natural world. Johnson's work often reflects her own experience as a member of the Six Nations of the Grand River and her deep connection to the land and its creatures.
