B Natural answer

If my dog could talk for one day, I think he would say that he feels safe and happy with us. He would probably mention every morning, because he likes knowing when breakfast and walks are coming. I also think he would ask for places to rest, especially when the house is busy. And if he could be honest, he would say he wants , because he never likes being alone for long. That seems like something he would really care about.
