Example Letter: Your next-door neighbour owns a small dog that barks throughout the day and the night. Write a letter to your neighbour requesting that something be done about the dog. Include in your letter: - Your reason for writing - What you would like to happen - A nice, respectful style

Hi , Pratixa I would like to talk about your pup. Your Dog is so cute. But nowadays is so irritating because of the barking of your pet. I just want to know about something wrong with your pup. Can you tell me what happens I wanna just make sure everything is okay. If your pet is not well apply for the pet Doctor and check up on it. Because nowadays I am so disturbed because of your pup. I hope your puppy is okay, and you will do something about it. Please don't judge me. Let me know if anything is serious. Thank you Pinal Patel
