Talking Points
- Dogs are furry animals that bark and wag their tails. Say, "Dogs are our loyal friends who love to play with us."
- Dogs come in different sizes and colors. Tell me, "Some dogs are big like bears, and some are small like cats."
- Dogs need food, water, and love to be happy. Let's say, "We should always be kind to animals and take care of them."
