Name a strong character in literature that owns a pet. I can't.

Assuming I'm not being an illiterate retard who needs to read more, why do you think this is the case? Why do few characters have pets even though they are a major part of many of our lives?

nah fuck you. Argus whilst important in demonising the suitors and emphasising Odysseus's separation from his old life, Argus is not a major point or part of Odysseus's characterisation/the Odyssey as a whole.

Who said that he was? The op said just "Name a strong character in literature that owns a pet".

OP here.

Pretty much decided I'm dumb. We're on a roll of pets, many in books i've read but have forgotten about.

As a classics student I'm 100% sure im gonna fail for completely forgetting Argus...
