Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights makes good use of symbolism and imagery, the unique writing techniques that infuses her work with deeper and broader connotations. This paper explores the role of dogs in the novel's characterization, plots and themes from the perspective of symbolism and imagery. Dogs in Wuthering Heights may serve as connections for complex relationships among the characters, foreshadowing or facilitators of the plot, and interpreters of the multiple themes.
