Where the Red Fern Grows has two main themes: determination and man's relationship to dogs. The two are closely related. After all, Old Dan, a dog, is perhaps the most determined character in the novel. Billy earns his beloved dogs through his determination, and together, they are unstoppable; they are a trio of dedication. Billy distinguishes between Old Dan and Little Ann, deciding that Old Dan is brave (that is, determined) while Little Ann is smart. But what does Little Ann's intelligence entail? It means that she always keeps searching for a coon. It means that she doesn't bark "treed" until she has done as thorough a search as possible, and is sure that the coon is in the tree. She is smart because she doesn't give up too early.

Well, partially due to their very close relationship with each other. I've heard of a lot of dogs being loyal to their people, but not usually of a dog who would refuse to eat until his little sister began. Also, though I suppose it's possible, most dogs don't whither away and die after a fellow dog dies. It's highly debatable just how emotional dogs can be, I know, but I don't often observe that deep mourning depression that would lead to death by broken heart. (very good book btw. Sad, but good)
