Pets are so sweet and cute, it can be hard not to spoil them. When your puppy looks at you with those big brown eyes, how can you not give him a little people food under the table? But spoiled animals often behave like brats. If you want an obedient pet, it’s best not to give it whatever it wants, whenever it wants it.

Definitely, my cat is a spoiled rotten! He demands  on getting treated like  royalty, and likes to yell at night and spoil furnitre. Sometimes we get crazy from his behavior.


But from another side, this one is very nice and friendly and never gets agressive in contrast to some other cats, which I know about. He is afraid to go outside and always hide when new people come. Taken from street two years ago he was very sick that time, and it is  touching to see how much he appreciates his home now. I always miss my cute  cat when I am leaving away  for a long time.

I have two pets, a dog and a cat. I definitely spoild my dog. You can see the dog on my picture. He is very small, only 4.5 pounds. He is so cute. Actually I made boundary when we first had him. But later, I forget about it. My daught allways cuddles him on the bed after he was taken bath. I offen give him food under the table. My husband said: he is a spoild rotten. He has been treated like royalty. I know I have love and affection to him too much. It’s not good to him. We all want our dog have good health and obedient.

Julito, I don’t want to tell that we have to kill pets, I don’t have problems with them, just I don’t like them and more over I don’t like people who put them ahead all, in spite, like I told, at situations as I wrote.


 


...but the truth is that I don’t like them. Did you see the picture with the dog who is represented in this lesson? I detest it.
