Speech

My speech topic is why dogs make good pets. I chose this topic because I know lots about dogs. When I presented my speech I felt happy. What I did well was my speed. What I could have done better was nothing, I did well.

Here is my speech:

Did you know that dogs make good pets? Dogs have been around for over 10,000 years. Dogs evolved from the grey wolf and dogs are said to be man's best friend but I think that dogs are friends to everyone. These are my 3 reasons why I think dogs make good pets. 

Dogs are good pets because they protect you by barking, growling and warning you if  someone is there or if someone is on the property. Say if you were going on a walk in a forest and someone was trying to attack you your dog could scratch, bark and growl which would scare them away.  It might even hurt the person trying to attack you.

Dogs love us and snuggle us because we look after them as well as they look after us. Dogs like to have our company. Dogs like to be patted. And dogs are a type of animal that need attention and affection. 

Dogs are easy to train because they will listen to you if they get a treat after they do something good. If  you hold a treat in your hand, tell your dog to sit and move back slowly they should sit. If you give them a treat when they sit then they learn that is the right thing to do when you say sit.

It doesn't matter if you don't like dogs but they are good pets to have. Dogs make good pets because they love you, keep you company when you need it and they also protect you!
