First, dogs are really cute. It’s nice to pick them up and hold them in our arms, and it’s wonderful to see them growing up quickly.
Second, we can learn about responsibility from keeping pet dog s. We have to feed them, train them and play with them. We even h ave to take care of them at night. According to my mum, this helps us become more responsible people.
We can also learn about life and death from dogs. Young peop le can learn how to care for others and how to respect all living things by keeping a pet dog.
A dog will love you faithfully for many years. Keeping pet dogs is something everyone can enjoy.

Emma has made several points for keeping a pet dog. What points does Matt make against keeping a pet dog?
Keeping pet dogs is not a good idea, says Matt.
Pet dogs create a lot of mess. They leave fur and hair on the floor, on beds and on sofas, and they need to be washed regula rly. Some people are not very good at cleaning up after their dogs when they take them for a walk. As a result, these dogs create a lot of mess on the streets and in parks.
We should remember that not all dogs are friendly. Some dogs bark at people they do not know. This can frighten young children.
A few dogs bark all night. This stops their neighbours from gettin g any sleep. A small number of pet dogs even bite people.
What’s more, most people in modern cities live in flats. The y have no choice but to keep their dogs in small spaces. This may make the dogs feel extremely unhappy. They always need fresh air a nd large open spaces where they can run free.
Finally, paying for dog food and visiting the vet can be exp ensive. I believe that people should not keep pet dogs.
Here are the supporting details for Matt’s opinion. Can yo u match them with his points?
1 They bark at strangers.
2 They even attack people.
3 They leave their hair on thefloor, on beds and on sofas, and they need to be washed often.
Dogs are dirty.
