D. To illustrate the intuitive nature of canines

Answer 1

C - To use personification to convey the theme.

Personification is giving human traits and characteristics to non-human objects (like dogs). The author mostly likely used this technique to convey their theme as they wouldn't use it to explain the breed of dog, add an element of suspense or mystery or illustrate the intuitive nature of dogs.
