In what way might Argos symbolize Ithaca since Odysseus has been gone?
Argos symbolizes loyalty and perseverance. By waiting faithfully for his master Odysseus to return, Argos reflects the enduring spirit of Ithaca and its people who also await the king's homecoming. Like Argos, the people of Ithaca remain steadfast and loyal despite Odysseus's prolonged absence.
Why is it ironic when Odysseus sees Argos what is Homer telling us about conditions in Ithaca?
It's ironic because while Odysseus' loyal dog recognizes him, none of the human characters do. This highlights the deteriorated state of Ithaca in Odysseus' absence, as his household, including his wife and servants, fail to recognize him, while the dog, a symbol of loyalty and fidelity, does. Homer is showing the lack of proper care and attention given to Odysseus' home during his long absence.
What is Argos symbolic of The Odyssey?
When Odysseus comes home, the first creature he's actually happy to see is his dog, Argos, who has been waiting for 20 years for his master to come home. Since the suitors had taken up his courtyard, Argos was forced to sleep outside on a dung heap, which was the only heat source he could find. I suppose he symbolizes Odysseus' joy to see his home again, because Odysseus' is ecstatic to see him again.

Sadly, Argos dies. Argos was in dire health, due to neglect, by the time Odysseus came home, but Odysseus could not reveal his true identity at that time, so he could not tend to Argos or try to save him. Still, Argos recognized him and had just enough strength to greet him and wag his tail, causing Odysseus to shed a tear at what had become of his loyal pet since he had been gone.
