George made the heart-wrenching decision to kill his best friend, Lennie Small. Killing Lennie is justified throughout the book Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck because if George did not kill Lennie, then Lennie would’ve had a slow, painful death, due to the fact the Curly is furious at Lennie for murdering his wife. “Curley gon’ta wanna get ‘im lynched,”says Candy (Steinbeck 94). Candy's dog is a blind, deaf old dog that cannot even walk with ease, and does not eat food. After Carlson shot Candy’s dog Candy says “I ought to of shot that dog myself”(Steinbeck 61).
George made the right decision in killing Lennie, although it was likely the hardest thing he has ever had to do, he realized that Lennie cannot take care of himself and will continue killing innocent animals/people if left alone, George himself is unfit to care for Lennie, he is not able to supervise him all the time and give him the help he needs. If Lennie was to be set free and do as he said “Well, I could. I could go off in the hills there. Some place I’d find a cave.”
In John Steinbeck’s novel “Of Mice and Men” two men are trying to find a temporary job so that they can move out to a little farm by themselves. They stay at a ranch for a while to work and save enough money so they are able to move out to the ranch, but then Lennie strangles and kills one of the ranch-workers wifes. Lennie runs away from the ranch so they can’t find him and George winds up having to kill Lennie, himself. The first reason George decided to kill Lennie was because in their old town “Weed” Lennie had touched and ripped a girl's dress and she started screaming and acting like she was being “raped” and she ran to all of the men to tell them what had happened and George and Lennie had to run until they got out of trouble and they
But the additional part that was Foreshadowed was when George told Lennie to stay away from Curley's wife and that she was trouble. But when it was just them two in the barn Lennie had no one telling him what he could and couldn't do so he listened to her and accidentally killed
Movies that have a dramatic scene are more attractive to watchers. In Of Mice and Men, written by John Steinbeck, the final dramatic scene is where George shoots Lennie in the head.

Because on Pg.14 it says “Course you did. Well, look. Lennie---if you jus’ happen to get in trouble like you always done before, I want you to come here an’ hide in the brush.” Meaning that George knew that Lennie would again get into more trouble.
If your best friend jumped off a bridge would you do it too? A man’s best friend is his dog and in Of Mice and Men, Lennie receives a potential best friend, his puppy. In this story, we see numerous connections between characters, for example, Candy and his old dog, how Slim is a friend to his workers, and Lennie with his puppy. These connections are also similarities. In life, you create a connection with someone and you can gain similarities with them and through this they can potentially have the same fate .
The main reason George killed Lennie is because Lennie would have killed somebody again. And the evidence is clearly there, the pet mice that he killed, the poor puppy that he accidently hit to hard, and especially Curley’s wife. He almost killed the girl in weed if he had gone any further. The sad thing is is that he doesn't know how strong he really is, nor does he know what he’s done wrong in the first place.

When George shoots Lennie he does so to protect him.
At first George believed that he could accomplish his dream but later doubts it right after he discovered Lennie did another “bad thing”. “Before George answered, Candy dropped his head and looked down at the hay. He knew. ”(Steinbeck 99).
