Hello!

The effects of using the figurative language that is described in the story are:

By speculating about his genetic makeup, the author conveys a contemplative tone.

By referencing his persistence, the author conveys a proud tone

By describing the differences between a terrier and a spaniel, the author implies an ironic tone.

Argument:

The author tends to use plenty of metaphors and similes with a tendency of contradiction. For example, when the author compares a spaniel and a terrier gives the reader a metaphor of how different these races are between each other but at the same time, he shows how valuable is Nibble, the mongrel dog.
