IІІ. Reading

Read the text and do the task
Many people who are looking to get a pet dog get a puppy. There are many reasons why people
get puppies. After all, puppies are cute, friendly, and playful. But even though puppies make good
pets, there are good reasons why you should consider getting an adult dog instead.
When you get a puppy, you have to teach it how to behave. You have to make sure that the
puppy is housebroken so that it does not go to the bathroom inside the house. You have to teach the
puppy not to jump up on your guests or chew on your shoes. You have to train the puppy to walk on a
leash. This is a lot of work.
On the other hand, when you get an adult dog, there is a good chance that it will already know
how to do all of the previously mentioned things. Many adult dogs have already been housebroken.

Many adult dogs will not jump on or chew things that you do not want them to jump on or chew. Many
adult dogs will be able to walk on a leash without pulling you to the other side of the street.
Puppies also have a lot of energy and want to play all of the time. This can be fun, but you might not
want to play as much as your puppy does. Puppies will not always sleep through the night or let you
relax as you watch television.
On the other hand, most adult dogs will wait on you to play. What is more, they will sleep
when you are sleeping and are happy to watch television on the couch right beside you.
There is one last reason why you should get an adult dog instead of a puppy. When most people go to
the pound to get a dog, they get a puppy. This means that many adult dogs spend a lot of time in the
pound, and some never find good homes. So if you are looking to get a dog for a pet, you should think
about getting an adult dog. They are good pets who need good homes.
