Talk about your pet animal and how you take care of it.

I have a pet dog, a man’s best friend. His name is Moti. Moti is a Labrador, white in colour and has a bushy tail with a black tip. He eats pet food that we buy for him from the market. We have a small kennel for him where he rests during the day when we are all away at school. Once we come back home, we take him for a walk around our apartment complex. He is the star of the apartment, as everyone loves him. He is also playful with them. Moti is also our watchdog, as he keeps a close eye on strangers who enter the apartment. My dog is a part of my family, and we love him very much.
