Solution

Yes, I do have a pet dog named Brady. He usually gets along well with almost everyone. But one of my neighbours, Ms. Miranda, an old woman, aged 70, didn't seem to have impressed the canine. He would do his utmost to make her life miserable. Sometimes tilting her dustbin kept outside her door, spreading garbage all over her entrance door, other times barking at her guests so fiercely to shoo them away before they could meet her. But one evening, when Ms. Miranda got stuck in the lift, Brady immediately recognised her voice. He couldn't bear to hear her cry of anxiety mixed with fear. Off he went running, searching for the security guard, and rescued her. Since then, both Brady and Ms. Miranda are best friends.
