He looks tired and dirty. He must have been caught in the tsunami. He looks very dirty.
- He has a collar. He must be someone's pet. He has a silver collar. He is shaking. He seems very afraid.
- Oh, there is another dog. I wonder if he is dead.
- Where?
- Right there. There is another dog right next to the one sitting down. He is not moving. I wonder. I wonder if he is alright.
- The dog is protecting him.
- Yes. He is protecting the dog. That is why he did not want us to approach them. He was trying to keep us at bay.
- I can't watch this. This is a very difficult to watch.
- Oh. Look. He is moving. He is alive. I am so happy to see that he is alive.
- Yes! Yes! He is alive.
- He looks to be weakened. We need to them to be rescued soon. We really want them rescued soon.
- Oh good. He's getting up.
- It is amazing how they survived the tremendous earthquake and tsunami. It's just amazing that they survived through this all.
