The story
Last year a new family moved into the flat above us.
They had a big brown dog.
Every night the dog barked for a long time.
I could not sleep and I became angry.
After two weeks I went upstairs to complain.
A young woman opened the door. She looked very tired.
She said, "I am so sorry. My dog is afraid when I go to work at night."
She worked at a hospital and left at ten every evening.
I did not know what to say.
Now I look after the dog on some nights.
He is quiet when someone is with him.
