Information About Dogs



Dogs



There are different types of dogs in this world. Some can be pets but other’s maybe strays. Some people let their dogs sleep at the end of their beds but others usually make them sleep in their living room or even outside in a kennel. There are approximately ten groups of dogs in this world. 

Dogs love to play games with you (if they are friendly), but other dogs just like to relax and lie down. In my opinion I like little dogs because they don’t get in the way like big dogs do. Another favourite is furry dogs, because they have soft, ticklish fur.
