The parents of children in our street are a lot less worried these days. |
| Chris |
Why's that ? |
| Dan |
One of the neighbors had a very fierce dog which scared everyone.
Last week it bit one of the children so badly, she had to be treated in hospital. |
| Chris |
That must have been an awful experience for the little girl. But why
did you say they are not worried now ? |
| Dan |
Well they complained about the dog to the police and the police
forced the owner to put it down. |
| Chris |
Oh I see. Well I'm sure that was for the best. |
