Ollie, the puppy, wagged its tail under the table.

Though the puppy had grown since they'd got it, it was still small in stature.

Leonel explained patiently to Evelyn, "Ollie eats dog food and canned food. Salty food like this isn't good for him. How about we go to the pet store together next time and get some special dog treats for Ollie?"

Evelyn nodded in understanding.

She sympathetically said to Ollie, "Poor thing, you can't even enjoy a bone."
