You indicated in the survey that you have a pet. What does it look like?

Tell me about your pet in detail.

Model answer.
I raise a Yorkshire Terrier called Honey. I named her Honey because she's so sweet.
She is 10 years old but she's still very healthy.
She is a small dog and has black and gray hair.
Every time I return home, she greets me, wagging her tail.
It's the only time she barks loudly and she follows me around.
To me, she's more than just a pet.
She's my best friend.
I can't imagine my life without her.
I hope we can be together for a long time.

My dog has a short tail and soft fur.


My cat has big gray eyes and she looks so adorable.
My hamsters are white with brown hair.
My dog is normally well behaved but when I take her for a walk,
she becomes noisy.
When strangers come to the door, she tends to become aggressive.
I have never seen a dog as gentle and obedient as my dog.
She likes to go around the house sniffing things.
He sniffs and smells everywhere when he goes outside.
Whenever she wants to go out, she starts yelping.
When I come home, he wags his tail to welcome me.
When strangers come, they bark loudly.
He always whines when he is home alone.
My cat is always purring when she is comfortable and feels good.
I am an animal person, so I think pets are good companions.
I would be so lonely without my pet.
She has become so much more than just a pet.
My family is happy to take care of our pet.
I feed my pet twice a day.
I try to take my dog for a walk every day but it's not always easy.
Whenever she does a good job, I reward her with treats.
My mom takes my dog to a grooming parlor once in a while.
Some people say grooming dogs regularly is too expensive, but I think it's
necessary.
My father takes the pet to a vet when it is sick.
I teach my dog how to sit.

I would like to know more about your pet. Who takes care of the pet?
What do you feed your pet?

Model answer.
I keep a three-year-old turtle, Toto. Toto is not that big.
He's a very small turtle. From the first day, Toto was under my care.
I feed him every day and give him a bath when necessary.
I feed him dry food for turtles basically but sometimes give him vegetables and
meat as well.
Every time I look at Toto, his relaxed and calm appearance seems to give me comfort
and
stability.

Have you ever had any problems with your pet? Please tell me a story about your
experience of having a problem.

Model answer.
When having a pet, the biggest problem is that a sudden emergency situation can
happen
anytime. When I was in high school, my family had a dog.
I once took him for a walk and suddenly he swallowed an unknown object.
He kept coughing and looked uncomfortable after that.
I was so scared that I took him to the nearest veterinary clinic.
Fortunately, the doctor told me that it was not a big deal but after that, I was
very
nervous about taking him out.

There may be advantages and disadvantages to having a pet. Please tell me about
your experiences.

Model answer.
The biggest advantage is that a pet gives emotional stability.
Of course, I am an animal person so I think pets are good companions.
They can comfort owners with depression, it's scientifically proven.
On the other hand, having a pet requires tremendous responsibility.
Sometimes you feel tired and want to avoid it because you have to spend your time
and
effort on your pet but it's not allowed once you have a pet.

You said that you have a pet in your home. I also raise a pet at home. Please ask
