The tiny Chihuahua, Sophie, provides a sense of laughter and enjoyment anywhere she is allowed. Whichever place it may be, Sophie receives very loving compliments from strangers overall saying how well behaved she is. Most Chihuahuas tend to have a very aggressive personality, but not Sophie; she welcomes and loves every human that walks through the door (after a couple of sniffs of course). Moreover, her positive personality lightens everyone’s day, especially mine. I remember the days of coming

I never mean to hurt people or animals, I just enjoy touching them because they are soft and I love that feeling. When I do hurt things I always try hiding it from George because he doesn’t like me keeping dead animals. I was alone in the barn when Curley’s wife came in and tried talking to me. I was ordered by George not to talk to her, but she said that it was fine, that nobody would see us

Her inherent distinction of class is said to be the main source of much of the comedy and irony that is present throughout her works.
