《English Translation》

小宝: Brother, I saw a video where a dog was sitting on a table eating meat. Is that fun?
小刚: It’s not fun. It’s unhygienic and can make other people uncomfortable.
小宝: But at home, dogs eat food too.
小刚: At home it’s okay, but restaurants are public places and rules must be followed.
小宝: Then why do some restaurants allow dogs inside?
小刚: Some shops don’t manage it properly, so they have to close for rectification.
小宝: If I see a dog on a table next time, should I remind the adults?
小刚: Yes. Loving animals also means respecting others—that’s what being civilized is.
