Dog Next Door<br>The dog next door loved our dog. They met at the fence every day. They whined when they couldn't reach each other. One day he seemed to turn on her. His owners came over and apologized.
His owners apologized for the behavior of their dog.
The construction of the paragraph would lead one to believe that the owners from next door came over to apologize for the behavior of their dog. However, it is unlikely that the neighbors were training their dog to turn on the other dog. It is more likely that the dog was acting that way due to another factor, and thus the neighbors would not have anything to apologize for, as they cannot control every action of their dog at all times.
