My Dog Is Sick

(1) Ashley: Listen
There is [vocab word=something]something[/vocab] wrong with my dog.

"something wrong" is an indefinite pronoun + adjective. The adjective "wrong" describes the "something". With "something", we don't say "wrong something". Indefinite pronoun + adjective is a very common pattern in English.

(2) George: Listen
What's wrong?
(3) Ashley: Listen
She's being very quiet. She's not eating. She's not playing.

"She's being very quiet" is in present continuous. The dog is not barking now. She's not making noise now.

(4) George: Listen
Maybe, she ate something bad.

"Something bad" is another Indefinite pronoun + adjective pattern.

(5) Ashley: Listen
I [vocab word=feed]fed[/vocab] her some rice, some vegetables, and some chickens.
(6) George: Listen
Did you feed her any snacks?
(7) Ashley: Listen
A little, in the dog park.
(8) George: Listen
Maybe, she ate something bad on the [vocab word=ground]ground[/vocab].
(9) Ashley: Listen
Maybe.
(10) George: Listen
Or, [vocab word=perhaps]perhaps[/vocab], [vocab word=somebody]somebody[/vocab] at the park fed her some bad treats.

"Perhaps" means "Maybe".

(11) Ashley: Listen
No, I don't think so.
(12) Ashley: Listen
Maybe, I'll just ask [vocab word=someone]someone[/vocab] in my Facebook Group.

"Someone" and "Somebody" are the same thing.

(13) George: Listen
Just ask your [vocab word=vet]vet[/vocab] or someone in your vet's office.

"vet" is short for "veterinarian" (animal doctor).

(14) Ashley: Listen
Yeah, that's a better idea.
