   How does the narrative view dog?

   • The narrative viewpoint sees Dog from an outside point of view. We are shown how he drools, how he creeps across a room towards Baby. These are medium angle shots, as if someone (Cat) is watching from a short distance away. The cat puts itself first in the title, as you’d expect of an egomaniac. On paper, things look fine.
