Please help me with this (12 points)

My dogs name is Ben. I got him a year ago, and we've became best roommates throughout our time. As some may know, there's always something wrong with a roommate. This one in particular is loud and messy. I do all of the work around the house, while he sits down being lazy. A week ago, it rained, that was the day I asked him to clean his dishes. He just sat and stared at me with a confusing look. I rolled my eyes and did them myself. After it stopped raining, he told me he was bored. I finished the dishes, and I took him outside. I told him to wipe his feet before he stepped on the floor. In the morning, as I was getting ready to make coffee, I noticed prints. They were flooding the front door. This became a habit for him, and I was sick of it. Finally, while watching a doggy clothing commercial, I got the bright idea. My package arrived 3 days later. "There you go ben-" I told him, "The next time you go outside, put these rain boots on." It was no longer a problem, though I had to remind him every day. He had a little bit of training, and he turned into an amazing roommate.

a is is the correct answer
