Comprehension Stick Dog Wants a Hot Dog

Stick Dog's stomach started to rumble while he and his friends were-

• Squatting behind a trash can hiding from a dog

• Sneaking a ride to the dump on a garbage truck

• Taking a drink and relaxing by the creek

• Playing fetch with humans in the park

Shortly before the dogs saw Peter selling Frankfurters- they --

• heard the jingling sound of the bell on his cart

• joined a group of humans standing in line

• found a spot of mustard he dropped on the ground

• saw him walking from the bakery carrying bags of buns

What made Stripes decide that her plan for snatching frankfurters wouldn't work?

• None of the dogs knew how to fly a helicopter.

• Humans couldn't translate dog's barks into English.

• Peter would call the pound if a dog bit him.

• The dogs would not survive a jump off of a roof.

The dogs eventually agreed to Stick Dog's plan, which was to

• charge as fast as they could at Peter and try to knock the cart over.

• sit by customers and whine, and hope someone feeds them a frankfurter

• raid the cart after he snatched the umbrella to make Peter chase him

• hide behind a hanging sheet and pounce out when Peter turned his head

As the racoon was sneaking towards the cart, Karen wanted to -

• give the raccoon an evil name

• make up a funny song about the raccoon

• growl to scare the raccoon away

• spread trash on the ground to distract the raccoon

How did Karen end up at the bearded man's house?

• She went down an outside stairwell that led to his basement.

• She hid in a laundry basket, and he took it inside.

• She followed his car into the garage; he shut the garage door.

• She climbed a ladder to the roof and fell through the skylight.

After observing his strange behavior, Stick Dog believed the man was -

• suffering from a bad case of food poisoning

• rehearsing for a part in a musical play

• getting ready to come outside to exercise

• searching for something he had lost

How did Karen's friends help her escape from the inside?

• They chewed a big hole in the screen so she could walk through.

• They held a sheet in each corner so she could jump from the window.

• They howled in the yard and she ran out as the man was chasing them.

• They rang the doorbell to draw the man outside and she ran past.

What did the dogs do when the sheet hung to low for them to see Peter?

• They climbed on top of one another until they could see over the top.

• They dug a small hole underneath it so Karen could see under the sheet.

• They dashed next door and spied on Peter behind a thorny rosebush.

• They chewed little holes in it, tiny enough for each dog to peek through.

The dogs were finally able to have some frankfurters after Peter -

• found them and feeling sorry for them gave them a treat

• saw the sheet they were tangled up in and ran because he thought it was a ghost

• bumped his cart into a tree where the raccoons were hiding and tipped it.

• became surround by raccoons and had to chase them away
