Tom offers to take care of* the dog.

 

Zoe wants to feed* the dog.

 

Tom refuses. He says Zoe must not feed* him, but she can give him some water. Indeed, the dog is maybe thirsty*.

 

Zoe asks if she can pet* the dog.

 

Her mother refuses. She says Zoe must not pet a dog she does not know.

 

Zoe asks if they can keep* the dog. She promises to take care of him.

 

She disagrees*.

When you have a dog, you must* get up* early* everyday in order to* feed him.

You must take* him to the vet* once* a month.

You must walk* him before school and clean up after him.

 

The children have three pets ; their mother thinks it is enough*.

 

She says they must call the shelter to ask for help. 

 

Tom is going to call.
