IELTS speaking part 1 Pets and animals

1. Do you like animals?

To be honest, I only like friendly animals such as dogs, cats and birds. I consider them human’s friends and keeping them as pets will help me release my negative emotions.

2. What’s your favourite animal? Why?

Dogs, definitely. I am actually raising two dogs at present. Whenever I come back home from work, they are waiting to welcome me at the door. Also, they make me feel better when I’m down in the dumps. That’s why I love dogs.

3. What is most popular animal in your country?

Well, it is dogs, perhaps. In the countryside, each household typically has a dog to watch their house as dogs usually bark when they see strangers. In the cities, many people, especially the young, do not hesitate to spend money on buying a dog and take care of them like babies.

3. Have you ever had a pet before?

If my memories serve me right, I had two pet animals in my childhood because I love pet animals even now I have two pet dogs at my home.

4. Where do you prefer to keep your pet, indoors or outdoors?

To be honest, I prefer to keep my dog indoors for most of the time. I feel dogs are the kind of animals that feel unhappy if they are forced to keep outside. They are highly social animals and seek continuous interaction with their masters.
