At the Pet Shop
Hi, I'm looking for a pet for my child's birthday.
Can you suggest something?
Sure, we have a variety of pets.
How about a dog?
They are great companions and easy to train.
I'm not sure if we can take care of a dog.
Dogs are playful, but they need a lot of care, and this is maybe too much responsibility for my child.
Well, kittens are easier to look after and they are so sweet.
We already have a kitten.
I see.
What about a rabbit?
A rabbit?
Don't they smell a lot?
Well, you do need to clean out the cage regularly.
But they don't need walks and they aren't as nosy as dogs.
What else do you have?
We also have hamsters.
They are low maintenance and great for small spaces.
I don't think my child would like a hamster.
How about fish?
They are easy to take care of and can be very relaxing to watch.
That sounds like a good idea.
I'd like to buy some goldfish.
They look so beautiful.
Can you tell me how to take care of them?
Sure, you need to feed them daily, clean the tank regularly, and keep the water at the right temperature and pH level.
I can give you a pamphlet with all the details.
Thank you.
I think my child will love having fish as a pet.
You're welcome.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.
