A dog can’t speak any words, but it can “talk”. It has feelings just as you do. Sometimes it may feel angry or afraid. Watch a dog closely, and you can find out its feelings. You can see what it is trying to tell you. When you are afraid, you may look down. When a dog is afraid, it may run away. When you are angry with other people, you stare at(凝视) them. An angry dog also stares. Sometimes the hair along its back stands up.
Do you feel guilty (有罪的) when you have done something wrong? Dogs can feel guilty, too. Sometimes when I come home, my dog gives me a guilty look. Then I know he has done something wrong.
Dogs need love and attention (关心). Some dogs are very unhappy when they are left alone for a long time. Some dogs snaps(撕咬)if they don’t get enough attention.
You may have a dog or you may know a dog. Treat it well if you want to have fun with it. Take it for a walk. Don’t order（命令） it round too much. Try not to punish (惩罚) it. Always remember, a dog has needs and feelings just as you do. Talk to a dog, and it will talk to you.
