      Mary: David, how did your mom like the dog you gave her for a birthday gift?

      David: Oh, Mary, she was delighted. It licked her hand and wagged its tail and she was hooked.

      Mary: What did she call it?

      David: She’s calling it “Brian”, after a friend of hers.

      Mary: Your mom always did have a sense of humor. I read somewhere that dogs can become very close to their owners.

      David: I’ve heard that. I saw an interview on TV with a man who had epileptic attacks, and his dog would warn him before he would have an attack.

      Mary: Really? I wonder how they can do that1

      David: It ahs something to do with the dog’s sense of smell. It’s very keen.

      Mary: Do you think Brian will be able to foretell when your mom is going to roast a chicken?

      After David gave his mom a dog as a birthday present, she was very pleased, for the dog licked her hand and wagged its tail. She called it Brian after one of her friends. Mary read an article which says that dogs can be faithful to their owners/masters. David agreed, for he saw a TV interview which introduced a dog that could warn its master of an epileptic attack. He explained that this ability of the dog’s has something to do with its keen sense of smell. Jokingly, Mary said she wounded whether the dog Brian can foretell/predict when David’s mom is going to roast a chicken.
