Let’s continue.

Translate the continuation of the story:

Куджо осторожно заглянул в сарай. Он увидел на полу одеяло и разбитое яйцо. Он медленно подошел к скорлупе и вдруг услышал тихое шипение. Звук шел из большого старого холодильника, где Куджо обычно хранил свою еду. Он очень медленно открыл дверцу и увидел маленького зеленого дракончика, которые сидел на полке и доедал собачий корм. Когда дракончик увидел Куджо, он сразу перестал есть и шипеть, облизнулся и вдруг закричал: «Мамочка!»

Так у Куджо появился собственный питомец.

К концу первого месяца Куджо научил своего питомца многим вещам.

«Не называй меня мамочкой.»

«Не клади лапы на стол.»

«Не выпускай пламя из пасти.»

«Не облизывай гостей.»

«Не храпи.»

Это было трудно, но Драджо был готов делать все, что скажет его хозяин, тем более, если у него в лапе была какая-нибудь вкусняшка.

Вчера Куджо начал учить своего питомца собачьему языку, а сегодня Драджо уже знал 100 слов!
