Read the article about a rescue center for dogs. Choose correct answer for each question below.

DOGS ESCAPE FROM RESCUE CENTRE

The mystery of the unlocked cages at a rescue center for dogs had the staff scratching their heads as much as the dogs scratch themselves.

Just how were up to nine dogs at a time getting out of their locked cages at night and helping themselves to food and treats from the kitchen?

Some of the staff even wondered if they had a ghost living at the rescue centre who was letting the dogs out. To solve the mystery they placed a camera in the building to see what went on at night. An hour after the staff had left, a friendly, wily dog of mainly greyhound descent named Red, was caught on camera opening his cage, then going to the other dogs’ cages and opening them.

Red was a very clever dog, after watching the staff unlock and open his cage each day to take him for walks and to feed him, he soon worked out how to open it himself. It wasn’t long before Red was able to open the cages of his ‘friends’ so that each night they could all feast and play together while the staff was at home asleep.
