    Bryan, Tres bien :) Je crois que c'est "chien" et pas "chein". Votre chien "veut" pas "desure" manger. good work!

    Great start Bryan! Cultural note: In French, even when domestic animals are female, we always refer to them generally in the masculine. You might swap over with a subject pronoun ("elle"), but in general stick with the masculine. So you might switch your sentence to "un petit chien" to make this more culturally appropriate. Grammatically, your entry is very ambitious, bravo! I especially liked your use of a "relative pronoun" to link two clauses: "qui." You correctly used the third person singular conjugation after "qui" which is perfect: "desire." However, when one verb in a clause is modified, the other must rest in the infinitive, so you should add an "r" to "mange" in the future: "qui desire manger." Another idea, when you're more comfortable, would be to try new verbs for wishes, like "vouloir" and "souhaiter." Be mindful of your spelling, because you are definitely off and running otherwise! Congratulations! Erik.
