Dear Sean, Thank you so much for helping me out to take care of my
dog
while I`ll be in Greece for my vacation
next
month. It was very kind of you to accept my request. I`m planning to leave Sri Lanka on 4th October and I`ll be back on 15th October. My cousin who lives in Greece already got me a sim card for me and while I`m there you will be able to contact me via
this
number. It`s +8134394424. In case you could not reach me, you can contact my cousin`s number at +81456822532. As you already know, Mingo is a friendly
dog
and it hardly bites anyone. I have kept 5 kg of
dog
food so you can give them during the mornings. In the evening, a maid will come and prepare food for Mingo.
Although
she is preparing food, she is really scared of the
dog
so I guess you are the one who

to do that. Another person will come to clean Mingo`s cage and give him a wash and he will be there every Sunday. Since we don`t allow him or the maid to access my house alone, I guess you have to open the door for them. And it would be a great help if you can stay at my house while they are working. Hope I was not asking too

favours. Since you love Mingo and spend time with him, I`m sure you will have a great time. Best wishes Migara

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 150 words in writing task 1. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long letter will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 160 to 190 words in writing task 1. This will ensure a concise letter and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 20 minutes to write the letter and you need around 5 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long letter in 15 minutes.
