My favourite animal is a dog . Dogs are loyal & loving animals & they can be your best friend. They are fun & love to play especially with a ball. Like us dogs need to eat , drink & breathe oxygen. Dogs love meat but they can eat lots of other things too like biscuits & bones. They also drink water just like us. Dogs are carnivores as they love meat. I think dogs are important to us because they bring us a lot of happiness & they have saved peoples lives. They have a wonderful sense of smell which means they can find people very easily. Dogs respond to sound & touch. They love to be stroked & they learn words that we speak just like we learn at school. I love dogs
