Pitco is a special dog from Brazil(巴西). Why do I say so? Because he can go shopping all by himself. Every day, Pitco goes to Agro Pet to get his food. That makes him popular.
"Everybody knows Pitco," says the animal doctor of the shop." Sometimes, when he can' t get what he wants, he barks(吠叫)until we give it to him."
After Pitco gets his food, he goes home. Of course, the shop doesn't just give Pitco his food for free. Agro Pet puts everything Pitco takes on a notebook, and later his owner(主人) comes by to pay(付费).
But as a good boy, Pitco does not only think about himself and his own food. Sometimes his owner asks him to buy food for his other pets. And Pitco is very happy to go to the shop and bring the food back home for the other pets in the family.

To make friends and keep them, you have to keep your words. If you agree to meet someone at a certain time, you should arrive at the place on time or a little earlier. If you agree to help others, you must do it. Of course if there is something unexpected(没有预料到的)happening and you can't do what you have agreed to do, your friends will understand this.
