John Steinback used it as a foreshadow of Lennie's death. In the book, Candy says, "I ought to of shot that dog myself, George. I shouldn't ought to of let no stranger shoot my dog." Near the end of the book, that is exactly how George feels about Lennie. George knew that Lennie will be punished because Lennie killed Curley's wife, so George just prefers killing Lennie himself.
Candy's dog's death in "Of Mice and Men" serves as a foreshadowing of Lennie's fate. It highlights the theme of mercy killing and the harsh reality of the ranch life during the Great Depression. Candy's dog also symbolizes the idea of vulnerability and being disposable in a harsh environment.
