The text is named after Sounder, the loyal family dog who is injured after protecting the boy's father. We later learn that during the father's arrest, the dog was severely injured. Afterward, he can no longer walk properly and has lost an ear and an eye. After his owner dies, Sounder also dies, which emphasizes Sounder's loyalty to his master.
